  • Forescout must be configured to authenticate SNMP messages using a FIPS-validated Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC).

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without authenticating devices, unidentified or unknown devices may be introduced, thereby facilitating malicious activity. B...

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Before establishing a connection with a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server, Forescout must authenticate using a bidirectional, cryptographically based authentication method that uses a FIPS-validated Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cipher block algorithm to authenticate with the NTP server.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;If Network Time Protocol is not authenticated, an attacker can introduce a rogue NTP server. This rogue server can then be us...

  • SRG-APP-000166-NDM-000254

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Forescout must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one uppercase character be used.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Use of a complex passwords helps to increase the time and resources required to compromise the password. Password complexity,...

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Forescout must enforce a minimum 15-character password length.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute...

  • SRG-APP-000170-NDM-000329

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Forescout must require that when a password is changed, the characters are changed in at least eight of the positions within the password.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;If the application allows the user to consecutively reuse extensive portions of passwords, this increases the chances of pass...
    Rule Low Severity
  • SRG-APP-000179-NDM-000265

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Forescout must use FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms for authentication to a cryptographic module.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Unapproved mechanisms used for authentication to the cryptographic module are not validated and therefore cannot be relied up...

  • SRG-APP-000190-NDM-000267

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Forescout must terminate all network connections associated with a device management session at the end of the session, or the session must be terminated after 10 minutes of inactivity except to fulfill documented and validated mission requirements.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Terminating an idle session within a short time period reduces the window of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take c...

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
