    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Sentry, for PKI-based authentication, must be configured to map validated certificates to unique user accounts.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without mapping the PKI certificate to a unique user account, the ability to determine the identities of individuals or the s...

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Sentry must use FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms for authentication to a cryptographic module.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Unapproved mechanisms that are used for authentication to the cryptographic module are not validated and therefore cannot be ...

  • SRG-APP-000190-NDM-000267

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Sentry must terminate all network connections associated with a device management session at the end of the session, or the session must be terminated after 10 minutes of inactivity except to fulfill documented and validated mission requirement.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Terminating an idle session within a short time period reduces the window of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take c...

  • SRG-APP-000224-NDM-000270

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Sentry must generate unique session identifiers using a FIPS 140-2 approved random number generator.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Sequentially generated session IDs can be easily guessed by an attacker. Employing the concept of randomness in the generatio...

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Sentry must generate an immediate real-time alert of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required....

  • SRG-APP-000373-NDM-000298

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Sentry must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks using redundant authoritative time sources.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;The loss of connectivity to a particular authoritative time source will result in the loss of time synchronization (free-run ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000395-NDM-000310

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • The Sentry must be configured to authenticate SNMP messages using a FIPS-validated Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC).

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without authenticating devices, unidentified or unknown devices may be introduced, thereby facilitating malicious activity. B...

  • SRG-APP-000412-NDM-000331

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Sentry must be configured to implement cryptographic mechanisms using a FIPS 140-2 approved algorithm to protect the confidentiality of remote maintenance sessions.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead...

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.
