SRG-APP-000357
Group -
The container platform must allocate audit record storage capacity in accordance with organization-defined audit record storage requirements.
In order to ensure applications have a sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, applications need to be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. The task of allocating ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000358
Group -
Audit records must be stored at a secondary location.
Auditable events are used in the investigation of incidents and must be protected from being deleted or altered. Often, events that took place in the past must be viewed to understand the entire in...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000359
Group -
The container platform must provide an immediate warning to the SA and ISSO (at a minimum) when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of repository maximum audit record storage capacity.
If security personnel are not notified immediately upon storage volume utilization reaching 75 percent, they are unable to plan for storage capacity expansion.Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000360
Group -
The container platform must provide an immediate real-time alert to the SA and ISSO, at a minimum, of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts.
It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without a real-time alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impe...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000374
Group -
All audit records must use UTC or GMT time stamps.
The container platform and its components must generate audit records using either Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) time stamps or local time that offset from UTC. All ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000375
Group -
The container platform must record time stamps for audit records that meet a granularity of one second for a minimum degree of precision.
To properly investigate an event, it is important to have enough granularity within the time stamps to determine the chronological order of the audited events. Without this granularity, events may ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000378
Group -
The container platform must prohibit the installation of patches and updates without explicit privileged status.
Controlling access to those users and roles responsible for patching and updating the container platform reduces the risk of untested or potentially malicious software from being installed within t...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000378
Group -
The container platform runtime must prohibit the instantiation of container images without explicit privileged status.
Controlling access to those users and roles responsible for container image instantiation reduces the risk of untested or potentially malicious containers from being executed within the platform an...Rule High Severity -
SRG-APP-000378
Group -
The container platform registry must prohibit installation or modification of container images without explicit privileged status.
Controlling access to those users and roles that perform container platform registry functions reduces the risk of untested or potentially malicious containers from being introduced into the platfo...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000380
Group -
The container platform must enforce access restrictions for container platform configuration changes.
Configuration changes cause the container platform to change the way it operates. These changes can be used to improve the system with added features or performance, but these configuration changes...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000381
Group -
The container platform must enforce access restrictions and support auditing of the enforcement actions.
Auditing the enforcement of access restrictions against changes to the container platform helps identify attacks and provides forensic data for investigation for after-the-fact actions. Attempts to...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000383
Group -
All non-essential, unnecessary, and unsecure DoD ports, protocols, and services must be disabled in the container platform.
To properly offer services to the user and to orchestrate containers, the container platform may offer services that use ports and protocols that best fit those services. The container platform, wh...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000384
Group -
The container platform must prevent component execution in accordance with organization-defined policies regarding software program usage and restrictions, and/or rules authorizing the terms and conditions of software program usage.
The container platform may offer components such as DNS services, firewall services, router services, or web services that are not required by every organization to meet their needs. Container plat...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000386
Group -
The container platform registry must employ a deny-all, permit-by-exception (whitelist) policy to allow only authorized container images in the container platform.
Controlling the sources where container images can be pulled from allows the organization to define what software can be run within the container platform. Allowing any container image to be introd...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000389
Group -
The container platform must require users to reauthenticate when organization-defined circumstances or situations require reauthentication.
Controlling user access is paramount in securing the container platform. During a user's access to the container platform, events may occur that change the user's access and which require reauthent...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000391
Group -
The container platform must be configured to use multi-factor authentication for user authentication.
Controlling access to the container platform and its components is paramount in having a secure and stable system. Validating users is the first step in controlling the access. Users may be validat...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000400
Group -
The container platform must prohibit the use of cached authenticators after an organization-defined time period.
If cached authentication information is out of date, the validity of the authentication information may be questionable.Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000401
Group -
The container platform, for PKI-based authentication, must implement a local cache of revocation data to support path discovery and validation in case of the inability to access revocation information via the network.
The potential of allowing access to users who are no longer authorized (have revoked certificates) increases unless a local cache of revocation data is configured.Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000402
Group -
The container platform must accept Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credentials from other federal agencies.
Controlling access to the container platform and its components is paramount in having a secure and stable system. Validating users is the first step in controlling the access. Users may be validat...Rule Medium Severity -

The container platform must audit non-local maintenance and diagnostic sessions' organization-defined audit events associated with non-local maintenance.
To fully investigate an attack, it is important to understand the event and those events taking place during the same time period. Often, non-local administrative access and diagnostic sessions are...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000411
Group -
Container platform applications and Application Program Interfaces (API) used for nonlocal maintenance sessions must use FIPS-validated keyed-hash message authentication code (HMAC) to protect the integrity of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications.
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 c...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000412
Group -
The container platform must configure web management tools and Application Program Interfaces (API) with FIPS-validated Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cipher block algorithm to protect the confidentiality of maintenance and diagnostic communications for nonlocal maintenance sessions.
