SRG-APP-000360-NDM-000295
Group -
The Cisco ISE must send an alarm to one or more individuals when the monitoring collector process has an error or failure.
It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without an alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impending fai...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000373-NDM-000298
Group -
The Cisco ISE must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks 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 Cisco ISE must record time stamps for audit records that can be mapped to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
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-000516-NDM-000335
Group -
The Cisco ISE must enforce access restrictions associated with changes to the firmware, OS, and hardware components.
Changes to the hardware or software components of the network device can have significant effects on the overall security of the network. Therefore, only qualified and authorized individuals should...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000336
Group -
The Cisco ISE must be configured to use an external authentication server to authenticate administrators prior to granting administrative access.
Centralized management of authentication settings increases the security of remote and nonlocal access methods. This control is particularly important protection against the insider threat. With ro...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000351
Group -
The Cisco ISE must be running an operating system release that is currently supported by the vendor.
Network devices running an unsupported operating system lack current security fixes required to mitigate the risks associated with recent vulnerabilities. The recommended best practice is for the ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000334
Group -
The Cisco ISE must generate log records for a locally developed list of auditable events.
Logging the actions of specific events provides a means to investigate an attack; to recognize resource utilization or capacity thresholds; or to identify an improperly configured network device. I...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000341
Group -
The Cisco ISE must conduct configuration and operational backups when changes are made or must schedule backups weekly, at a minimum.
If this information is not backed up and a system failure was to occur, the security settings would be difficult to reconfigure quickly and accurately, thus increasing adverse impact of the outage....Rule Low Severity -
SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000344
Group -
The Cisco ISE must use DoD-approved PKI rather than proprietary or self-signed device certificates.
To mitigate the risk of unauthorized access to sensitive information by entities that have been issued certificates by DoD-approved PKIs. The Cisco ISE generates a key-pair and a CSR. The CSR is s...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000142-NDM-000245
Group -
The Cisco ISE must be configured to prohibit the use of all unnecessary and/or nonsecure functions, ports, protocols, and/or services.
Changes to any software components of the network device can have significant effects on the overall security of the network. Therefore, only qualified and authorized individuals should be allowed ...Rule High Severity

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.
