  • SRG-APP-000168

    Group
  • The container platform must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one numeric character be used.

    Use of a complex password helps to increase the time and resources required to compromise the password. Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resistin...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000169

    Group
  • The container platform must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one special character be used.

    Use of a complex password helps to increase the time and resources required to compromise the password. Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resistin...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000170

    Group
  • The container platform must require the change of at least 15 of the total number of characters when passwords are changed.

    If the application allows the user to consecutively reuse extensive portions of passwords, this increases the chances of password compromise by increasing the window of opportunity for attempts at ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000171

    Group
  • For container platform using password authentication, the application must store only cryptographic representations of passwords.

    Passwords need to be protected at all times, and encryption is the standard method for protecting passwords. If passwords are not encrypted, they can be plainly read and easily compromised. Use of ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000172

    Group
  • For accounts using password authentication, the container platform must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 or later protocol to protect the integrity of the password authentication process.

    Passwords need to be protected on entry, in transmission, during authentication, and when stored. If compromised at any of these security points, a nefarious user can use the password along with st...

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.
