    Group
  • The container platform application program interface (API) must uniquely identify and authenticate processes acting on behalf of the users.

    The container platform API can be used to perform any task within the platform. Often, the API is used to create tasks that perform some kind of maintenance task and run without user interaction. T...

  • SRG-APP-000149

    Group
  • The container platform must use multifactor authentication for network access to privileged accounts.

    Without the use of multifactor authentication, the ease of access to privileged functions is greatly increased. Multifactor authentication requires using two or more factors to achieve authenticat...

  • SRG-APP-000150

    Group
  • The container platform must use multifactor authentication for network access to non-privileged accounts.

    To ensure accountability and prevent unauthenticated access, non-privileged users must utilize multifactor authentication to prevent potential misuse and compromise of the system. Multifactor auth...

  • SRG-APP-000151

    Group
  • The container platform must use multifactor authentication for local access to privileged accounts.

    To ensure accountability and prevent unauthenticated access, privileged users must utilize multifactor authentication to prevent potential misuse and compromise of the system. Multifactor authenti...

  • SRG-APP-000153

    Group
  • The container platform must ensure users are authenticated with an individual authenticator prior to using a group authenticator.

    To ensure individual accountability and prevent unauthorized access, application users must be individually identified and authenticated. Individual accountability mandates that each user be uniqu...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000156

    Group
  • The container platform must use FIPS-validated SHA-1 or higher hash function to provide replay-resistant authentication mechanisms for network access to privileged accounts.

    A replay attack may enable an unauthorized user to gain access to the application. Authentication sessions between the authenticator and the application validating the user credentials must not be ...

    Group
  • The container platform must implement replay-resistant authentication mechanisms for network access to nonprivileged accounts.

    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000158

    Group
  • The container platform must uniquely identify all network-connected nodes before establishing any connection.

    A container platform usually consists of multiple nodes. It is important for these nodes to be uniquely identified before a connection is allowed. Without identifying the nodes, unidentified or unk...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000163

    Group
  • The container platform must disable identifiers (individuals, groups, roles, and devices) after 35 days of inactivity.

    Inactive identifiers pose a risk to systems and applications. Attackers that are able to exploit an inactive identifier can potentially obtain and maintain undetected access to the application. Own...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000164

    Group
  • The container platform must enforce a minimum 15-character password length.

    The shorter the password, the lower the number of possible combinations that need to be tested before the password is compromised. Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectivene...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000166

    Group
  • The container platform must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one uppercase 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-000167

    Group
  • The container platform must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one lowercase 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-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...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-APP-000173

    Group
  • The container platform must enforce 24 hours (one day) as the minimum password lifetime.

    Enforcing a minimum password lifetime helps prevent repeated password changes to defeat the password reuse or history enforcement requirement. Restricting this setting limits the user's ability to...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000174

    Group
  • The container platform must enforce a 60-day maximum password lifetime restriction.

    Any password, no matter how complex, can eventually be cracked; therefore, passwords need to be changed at specific intervals. One method of minimizing this risk is to use complex passwords and p...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000177

    Group
  • The container platform must map the authenticated identity to the individual user or group account for PKI-based authentication.

    The container platform and its components may require authentication before use. When the authentication is PKI-based, the container platform or component must map the certificate to a user account...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000178

    Group
  • The container platform must obscure feedback of authentication information during the authentication process to protect the information from possible exploitation/use by unauthorized individuals.

    To prevent the compromise of authentication information such as passwords during the authentication process, the feedback from the container platform and its components, e.g., runtime, registry, an...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000181

    Group
  • The container platform must provide an audit reduction capability that supports on-demand reporting requirements.

    The ability to generate on-demand reports, including after the audit data has been subjected to audit reduction, greatly facilitates the organization's ability to generate incident reports as neede...

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.
