PP-MDM-411047
1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM or platform must be configured to initiate a session lock after a 15-minute period of inactivity.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>A session time-out lock is a temporary action taken when a user (MDM system administrator) stops work and moves away from the immediate physical vicinity of the information system but does not log out because of the temporary nature of the absence. Rather than relying on the user to manually lock their application session prior to leaving the vicinity, applications must be able to identify when a user's application session has idled and take action to initiate the session lock. The session lock is implemented at the point where session activity can be determined and/or controlled. This is typically at the operating system level and results in a system lock but may be at the application level where the application interface window is secured instead.

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must be configured to transfer Samsung SDS EMM logs to another server for storage, analysis, and reporting. Note: Samsung SDS EMM logs include logs of MDM events and logs transferred to the Samsung SDS EMM by MDM agents of managed devices.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Audit logs enable monitoring of security-relevant events and subsequent forensics when breaches occur. Since the Samsung SDS EMM has limited capability to store mobile device log files and perform analysis and reporting of mobile device log files, the Samsung SDS EMM must have the capability to transfer log files to an audit log management server.

PP-MDM-411056
1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must be configured to display the required DoD warning banner upon administrator logon. Note: This requirement is not applicable if the TOE platform is selected in FTA_TAB.1.1 in the Security Target (ST).
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Note: The advisory notice and consent warning message is not required if the general purpose OS or network device displays an advisory notice and consent warning message when the administrator logs on to the general purpose OS or network device prior to accessing the Samsung SDS EMM or Samsung SDS EMM platform. Before granting access to the system, the Samsung SDS EMM/server platform is required to display the DoD-approved system use notification message or banner that provides privacy and security notices consistent with applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance. This ensures the legal requirements for auditing and monitoring are met. The approved DoD text must be used as specified in the KS referenced in DoDI 8500.01. The non-bracketed text below must be used without any changes as the warning banner. [A. Use this banner for desktops, laptops, and other devices accommodating banners of 1300 characters. The banner shall be implemented as a click-through banner at logon (to the extent permitted by the operating system), meaning it prevents further activity on the information system unless and until the user executes a positive action to manifest agreement by clicking on a box indicating “OK.”] You are accessing a U.S. Government (USG) Information System (IS) that is provided for USG-authorized use only. By using this IS (which includes any device attached to this IS), you consent to the following conditions: -The USG routinely intercepts and monitors communications on this IS for purposes including, but not limited to, penetration testing, COMSEC monitoring, network operations and defense, personnel misconduct (PM), law enforcement (LE), and counterintelligence (CI) investigations. -At any time, the USG may inspect and seize data stored on this IS. -Communications using, or data stored on, this IS are not private, are subject to routine monitoring, interception, and search, and may be disclosed or used for any USG-authorized purpose. -This IS includes security measures (e.g., authentication and access controls) to protect USG interests--not for your personal benefit or privacy. -Notwithstanding the above, using this IS does not constitute consent to PM, LE or CI investigative searching or monitoring of the content of privileged communications, or work product, related to personal representation or services by attorneys, psychotherapists, or clergy, and their assistants. Such communications and work product are private and confidential. See User Agreement for details.

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must be configured with a periodicity for reachable events of six hours or less for the following commands to the agent: - query connectivity status; - query the current version of the MD firmware/software; - query the current version of installed mobile applications; - read audit logs kept by the MD.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Key security-related status attributes must be queried frequently so the Samsung SDS EMM can report status of devices under management to the administrator and management. The frequency of these queries must be configured to an acceptable timeframe. Six hours or less is considered acceptable for normal operations.

PP-MDM-411058
1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must be configured to have at least one user in the following Administrator roles: Server primary administrator, security configuration administrator, device user group administrator, auditor.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Having several administrative roles for the Samsung SDS EMM supports separation of duties. This allows administrator-level privileges to be granted granularly, such as giving application management privileges to one group and security policy privileges to another group. This helps prevent administrators from intentionally or inadvertently altering other settings and configurations they may not understand or approve of, which can weaken overall security and increase the risk of compromise. - Server primary administrator: Responsible for server installation, initial configuration, and maintenance functions. Responsible for the setup and maintenance of security configuration administrator and auditor accounts. Responsible for the maintenance of applications in the MAS. - Security configuration administrator: Responsible for security configuration of the server, defining device user groups, setup and maintenance of device user group administrator accounts, and defining privileges of device user group administrators. - Device user group administrator: Responsible for maintenance of mobile device accounts, including setup, change of account configurations, and account deletion. Responsible for defining which apps user groups or individual users have access to in the MAS. Can only perform administrative functions assigned by the security configuration administrator. - Auditor: Responsible for reviewing and maintaining server and mobile device audit logs.

PP-MDM-411065
1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must be configured to audit DoD or site-defined auditable events. Note: See VulDiscussion for a list of DoD required auditable events.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Without the capability to generate audit records, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident, or identify those responsible for one. Audit records can be generated from various components within the application (e.g., process, module). Certain specific application functionalities may be audited as well. The list of audited events is the set of events for which audits are to be generated. This set of events is typically a subset of the list of all events for which the system is capable of generating audit records. DoD has defined the list of events for which the application will provide an audit record generation capability as the following: (i) Successful and unsuccessful attempts to access, modify, or delete privileges, security objects, security levels, or categories of information (e.g., classification levels); (ii) Access actions, such as successful and unsuccessful logon attempts, privileged activities or other system level access, starting and ending time for user access to the system, concurrent logons from different workstations, successful and unsuccessful accesses to objects, all program initiations, and all direct access to the information system; and (iii) All account creation, modification, disabling, and termination actions. DoD Required auditable events (from the MDM Protection Profile): - Change in enrollment status - Failure to apply policies to a mobile device - Startup and shutdown of the MDM System - All administrative actions - Commands issued to the MDM Agent, none] - Specifically defined auditable events listed in Table 2 of the MDM Protection Profile SFR ID: FAU_GEN.1.1(1), FMT_SMF.1.1(2)c.8</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
PP-MDM-413002
1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The [selection: Samsung SDS EMM, MDM platform] must have the capability to display the DoD warning banner prior to establishing a user session.
Low Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Display of the DoD-approved use notification before granting access to the application ensures privacy and security notification verbiage used is consistent with applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance. System use notifications are required only for access via logon interfaces with human users and are not required when such human interfaces do not exist. The banner must be formatted in accordance with DTM-08-060. Use the following verbiage for applications that can accommodate banners of 1300 characters: "You are accessing a U.S. Government (USG) Information System (IS) that is provided for USG-authorized use only. By using this IS (which includes any device attached to this IS), you consent to the following conditions: -The USG routinely intercepts and monitors communications on this IS for purposes including, but not limited to, penetration testing, COMSEC monitoring, network operations and defense, personnel misconduct (PM), law enforcement (LE), and counterintelligence (CI) investigations. -At any time, the USG may inspect and seize data stored on this IS. -Communications using, or data stored on, this IS are not private, are subject to routine monitoring, interception, and search, and may be disclosed or used for any USG-authorized purpose. -This IS includes security measures (e.g., authentication and access controls) to protect USG interests--not for your personal benefit or privacy. -Notwithstanding the above, using this IS does not constitute consent to PM, LE or CI investigative searching or monitoring of the content of privileged communications, or work product, related to personal representation or services by attorneys, psychotherapists, or clergy, and their assistants. Such communications and work product are private and confidential. See User Agreement for details." Use the following verbiage for operating systems that have severe limitations on the number of characters that can be displayed in the banner: "I've read & consent to terms in IS user agreem't."

1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM platform must be protected by a DoD-approved firewall.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Most information systems are capable of providing a wide variety of functions and services. Some of the functions and services provided by default may not be necessary to support essential organizational operations. Unneeded services and processes provide additional threat vectors and avenues of attack to the information system. The Samsung SDS EMM is a critical component of the mobility architecture and must be configured to enable only those ports, protocols, and services (PPS) necessary to support functionality. All others must be expressly disabled or removed. A DoD-approved firewall implements the required network restrictions. A host-based firewall is appropriate where the Samsung SDS EMM runs on a standalone platform. Network firewalls or other architectures may be preferred where the Samsung SDS EMM runs in a cloud or virtualized solution.

1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The firewall protecting the Samsung SDS EMM platform must be configured to restrict all network traffic to and from all addresses with the exception of ports, protocols, and IP address ranges required to support Samsung SDS EMM and platform functions.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Most information systems are capable of providing a wide variety of functions and services. Some of the functions and services, provided by default, may not be necessary to support essential organizational operations. Since Samsung SDS EMM is a critical component of the mobility architecture and must be configured to enable only those ports, protocols, and services (PPS) necessary to support functionality, all others must be expressly disabled or removed. A firewall installed on the Samsung SDS EMM provides a protection mechanism to ensure unwanted service requests do not reach the Samsung SDS EMM and outbound traffic is limited to only Samsung SDS EMM functionality.

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The firewall protecting the Samsung SDS EMM platform must be configured so that only DoD-approved ports, protocols, and services are enabled. See the DoD Ports, Protocols, Services Management [PPSM] Category Assurance Levels [CAL] list for DoD-approved ports, protocols, and services.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>All ports, protocols, and services used on DoD networks must be approved and registered via the DoD PPSM process. This is to ensure that a risk assessment has been completed before a new port, protocol, or service is configured on a DoD network and has been approved by proper DoD authorities. Otherwise, the new port, protocol, or service could cause a vulnerability to the DoD network, which could be exploited by an adversary.

PP-MDM-431010
1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must limit the number of concurrent sessions to one session for all accounts and/or account types.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Application management includes the ability to control the number of users and user sessions that utilize an application. Limiting the number of allowed users and sessions per user is helpful in limiting risks related to DoS attacks. This requirement may be met via the application or by using information system session control provided by a web server with specialized session management capabilities. If it has been specified that this requirement will be handled by the application, the capability to limit the maximum number of concurrent single user sessions must be designed and built into the application. This requirement addresses concurrent sessions for information system accounts and does not address concurrent sessions by single users via multiple system accounts. The maximum number of concurrent sessions should be defined based upon mission needs and the operational environment for each system.

1 Rule
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must automatically disable accounts after a 35 day period of account inactivity (local accounts).
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Attackers that are able to exploit an inactive account can potentially obtain and maintain undetected access to an application. Owners of inactive accounts will not notice if unauthorized access to their user account has been obtained. Applications need to track periods of user inactivity and disable accounts after 35 days of inactivity. Such a process greatly reduces the risk that accounts will be hijacked, leading to a data compromise. To address access requirements, many application developers choose to integrate their applications with enterprise-level authentication/access mechanisms that meet or exceed access control policy requirements. Such integration allows the application developer to off-load those access control functions and focus on core application features and functionality. This policy does not apply to either emergency accounts or infrequently used accounts. Infrequently used accounts are local login administrator accounts used by system administrators when network or normal logon/access is not available. Emergency accounts are administrator accounts created in response to crisis situations.

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must enforce the limit of three consecutive invalid logon attempts by a user.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>By limiting the number of failed login attempts, the risk of unauthorized system access via user password guessing, otherwise known as brute forcing, is reduced. Limits are imposed by locking the account.

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM must use multifactor authentication for local access to privileged accounts.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>To ensure accountability and prevent unauthenticated access, privileged users must use multifactor authentication to prevent potential misuse and compromise of the system. Multifactor authentication is defined as using two or more factors to achieve authentication. Factors include: (i) Something a user knows (e.g., password/PIN); (ii) Something a user has (e.g., cryptographic identification device, token); or (iii) Something a user is (e.g., biometric). A privileged account is defined as an information system account with authorizations of a privileged user. Local access is defined as access to an organizational information system by a user (or process acting on behalf of a user) communicating through a direct connection without the use of a network. Applications integrating with the DoD Active Directory and using the DoD CAC are examples of compliant multifactor authentication solutions.

The Samsung SDS EMM must be configured to leverage the MDM platform administrator accounts and groups for Samsung SDS EMM user identification and CAC authentication.
High Severity
<VulnDiscussion>A comprehensive account management process that includes automation helps to ensure the accounts designated as requiring attention are consistently and promptly addressed. If an attacker compromises an account, the entire MDM server infrastructure is at risk. Providing automated support functions for the management of accounts will ensure only active accounts will be granted access with the proper authorization levels. These objectives are best achieved by configuring the MDM server to leverage an enterprise authentication mechanism (e.g., Microsoft Active Directory Kerberos).

The Samsung SDS EMM local accounts password must be configured with length of 15 characters.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>The shorter the password, the lower the number of possible combinations that need to be tested before the password is compromised. Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. Password length is one factor of several that helps to determine strength and how long it takes to crack a password. The shorter the password, the lower the number of possible combinations that need to be tested before the password is compromised. Use of more characters in a password helps to exponentially increase the time and/or resources required to compromise the password.

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The Samsung SDS EMM local accounts must be configured with password maximum lifetime of 60 Days.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Any password, no matter how complex, can eventually be cracked. Therefore, passwords need to be changed at specific intervals. One method of minimizing this risk is to use complex passwords and periodically change them. If the application does not limit the lifetime of passwords and force users to change their passwords, there is the risk that the system and/or application passwords could be compromised. This requirement does not include emergency administration accounts which are meant for access to the application in case of failure. These accounts are not required to have maximum password lifetime restrictions.

The Samsung SDS EMM local accounts must prohibit password reuse for a minimum of five generations.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. To meet password policy requirements, passwords need to be changed at specific policy-based intervals. If the information system or application allows the user to consecutively reuse their password when that password has exceeded its defined lifetime, the end result is a password that is not changed as per policy requirements.
