    Group
  • The container platform must prohibit communication using TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1, and SSL 2.0 and 3.0.

    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000605

    Group
  • The container platform must validate certificates used for Transport Layer Security (TLS) functions by performing an RFC 5280-compliant certification path validation.

  • SRG-APP-000610

    Group
  • The container platform must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 or higher hash function for digital signature generation and verification (non-legacy use).

  • SRG-APP-000635

    Group
  • The container platform must use a FIPS-validated cryptographic module to implement encryption services for unclassified information requiring confidentiality.

  • SRG-APP-000705

    Group
  • The container platform must disable accounts when the accounts are no longer associated to a user.

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.
