Rules and Groups employed by this XCCDF Profile

  • SRG-OS-000076-GPOS-00044

    Group
  • SLEM 5 must employ user passwords with a maximum lifetime of 60 days.

    Any password, no matter how complex, can eventually be cracked. Therefore, passwords need to be changed periodically. If SLEM 5 does not limit the lifetime of passwords and force users to change th...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-OS-000077-GPOS-00045

    Group
  • SLEM 5 must employ a password history file.

    Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. If the information system or application allows the user...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-OS-000073-GPOS-00041

    Group
  • SLEM 5 must employ FIPS 140-2/140-3-approved cryptographic hashing algorithms for system authentication.

    The system must use a strong hashing algorithm to store the password. The system must use a sufficient number of hashing rounds to ensure the required level of entropy. Passwords need to be protec...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-OS-000073-GPOS-00041

    Group
  • SLEM 5 shadow password suite must be configured to use a sufficient number of hashing rounds.

    The system must use a strong hashing algorithm to store the password. The system must use a sufficient number of hashing rounds to ensure the required level of entropy. Passwords need to be protec...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-OS-000120-GPOS-00061

    Group
  • SLEM 5 must employ FIPS 140-2/140-3 approved cryptographic hashing algorithm for system authentication (login.defs).

    Unapproved mechanisms that are used for authentication to the cryptographic module are not verified and therefore cannot be relied on to provide confidentiality or integrity, and DOD data may be co...

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.
