Rules and Groups employed by this XCCDF Profile

  • SRG-APP-000371-NDM-000296

    Group
  • The HP FlexFabric Switch must compare internal information system clocks at least every 24 hours with an authoritative time server.

    Inaccurate time stamps make it more difficult to correlate events and can lead to an inaccurate analysis. Determining the correct time a particular event occurred on a system is critical when condu...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000372-NDM-000297

    Group
  • The HP FlexFabric Switch must synchronize internal information system clocks to the authoritative time source when the time difference is greater than the organization-defined time period.

    Inaccurate time stamps make it more difficult to correlate events and can lead to an inaccurate analysis. Determining the correct time a particular event occurred on a system is critical when condu...

  • SRG-APP-000373-NDM-000298

    Group
  • The HP FlexFabric Switch must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks with the primary and secondary time sources located in different geographic regions using redundant authoritative time sources.

    The loss of connectivity to a particular authoritative time source will result in the loss of time synchronization (free-run mode) and increasingly inaccurate time stamps on audit events and other ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000374-NDM-000299

    Group
  • The HP FlexFabric Switch must record time stamps for audit records that can be mapped to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

    If time stamps are not consistently applied and there is no common time reference, it is difficult to perform forensic analysis. Time stamps generated by the application include date and time. Tim...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000375-NDM-000300

    Group
  • The HP FlexFabric Switch must record time stamps for audit records that meet a granularity of one second for a minimum degree of precision.

    Without sufficient granularity of time stamps, it is not possible to adequately determine the chronological order of records. Time stamps generated by the application include date and time. Granula...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000397-NDM-000312

    Group
  • The HP FlexFabric Switch must allow the use of a temporary password for system logons with an immediate change to a permanent password.

    Without providing this capability, an account may be created without a password. Non-repudiation cannot be guaranteed once an account is created if a user is not forced to change the temporary pass...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000411-NDM-000330

    Group
  • Applications used for nonlocal maintenance sessions must implement cryptographic mechanisms to protect the integrity of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications.

    This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead of FTP, and HTTPS instead of HTTP. If unsecured protocols (lacking cryp...

  • SRG-APP-000412-NDM-000331

    Group
  • Applications used for nonlocal maintenance sessions must implement cryptographic mechanisms to protect the confidentiality of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications.

    This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead of FTP, and HTTPS instead of HTTP. If unsecured protocols (lacking cryp...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000435-NDM-000315

    Group
  • The HP FlexFabric Switch must protect against or limit the effects of all known types of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks on the HP FlexFabric Switch management network by employing organization-defined security safeguards.

    DoS is a condition when a resource is not available for legitimate users. When this occurs, the organization either cannot accomplish its mission or must operate at degraded capacity. This require...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000491-NDM-000316

    Group
  • If the HP FlexFabric Switch uses mandatory access control, the HP FlexFabric Switch must enforce organization-defined mandatory access control policies over all subjects and objects.

    Mandatory access control policies constrain what actions subjects can take with information obtained from data objects for which they have already been granted access, thus preventing the subjects ...

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.
