SRG-APP-000243-DB-000128
Group -
Database contents must be protected from unauthorized and unintended information transfer by enforcement of a data-transfer policy.
Applications, including PostgreSQL, must prevent unauthorized and unintended information transfer via shared system resources. Data used for the development and testing of applications often inv...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000243-DB-000374
Group -
Access to database files must be limited to relevant processes and to authorized, administrative users.
Applications, including PostgreSQL, must prevent unauthorized and unintended information transfer via shared system resources. Permitting only DBMS processes and authorized, administrative users to...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000122-DB-000203
Group -
PostgreSQL must protect its audit configuration from unauthorized modification.
Protecting audit data also includes identifying and protecting the tools used to view and manipulate log data. Therefore, protecting audit tools is necessary to prevent unauthorized operation on au...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000179-DB-000114
Group -
PostgreSQL must use NIST FIPS 140-2 or 140-3 validated cryptographic modules for cryptographic operations.
Use of weak or not validated cryptographic algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption and digital signatures to protect data. Weak algorithms can be easily broken and not validated ...Rule High Severity -
SRG-APP-000502-DB-000348
Group -
Audit records must be generated when categorized information (e.g., classification levels/security levels) is deleted.
Changes in categorized information must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized access to protected data could go undetected. For detailed information on categorizing information, refer t...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000507-DB-000356
Group -
PostgreSQL must generate audit records when successful accesses to objects occur.
Without tracking all or selected types of access to all or selected objects (tables, views, procedures, functions, etc.), it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events r...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000508-DB-000358
Group -
PostgreSQL must generate audit records for all direct access to the database(s).
In this context, direct access is any query, command, or call to the DBMS that comes from any source other than the application(s) that it supports. Examples would be the command line or a database...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000179-DB-000114
Group -
The DBMS must be configured on a platform that has a NIST certified FIPS 140-2 or 140-3 installation of OpenSSL.
PostgreSQL uses OpenSSL for the underlying encryption layer. It must be installed on an operating system that contains a certified FIPS 140-2 or 140-3 distribution of OpenSSL. For other operating s...Rule High Severity -
SRG-APP-000514-DB-000383
Group -
PostgreSQL must use NSA-approved cryptography to protect classified information in accordance with the data owners requirements.
Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. The application must implement cryptographic modules adhering to the higher standards ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000456-DB-000400
Group -
PostgreSQL products must be a version supported by the vendor.
Unsupported commercial and database systems should not be used because fixes to newly identified bugs will not be implemented by the vendor. The lack of support can result in potential vulnerabilit...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.
