Group -
The DBMS must integrate with an organization-level authentication/access mechanism providing account management and automation for all users, groups, roles, and any other principals.

SRG-APP-000033
Group -
The DBMS must enforce approved authorizations for logical access to information and system resources in accordance with applicable access control policies.

SRG-APP-000080
Group -
The DBMS must protect against a user falsely repudiating having performed organization-defined actions.
Non-repudiation of actions taken is required in order to maintain data integrity. Examples of particular actions taken by individuals include creating information, sending a message, approving info...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000089
Group -
The DBMS must provide audit record generation capability for DoD-defined auditable events within all DBMS/database components.
Without the capability to generate audit records, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident or identify those responsible for one. Audit re...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000090
Group -
The DBMS must allow only the ISSM (or individuals or roles appointed by the ISSM) to select which auditable events are to be audited.
Without the capability to restrict which roles and individuals can select which events are audited, unauthorized personnel may be able to prevent or interfere with the auditing of critical events. ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000091
Group -
The DBMS must be able to generate audit records when privileges/permissions are retrieved.
Under some circumstances, it may be useful to monitor who/what is reading privilege/permission/role information. Therefore, it must be possible to configure auditing to do this. DBMSs typically mak...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000091
Group -
The DBMS must be able to generate audit records when unsuccessful attempts to retrieve privileges/permissions occur.
Under some circumstances, it may be useful to monitor who/what is reading privilege/permission/role information. Therefore, it must be possible to configure auditing to do this. DBMSs typically mak...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000092
Group -
The DBMS must initiate session auditing upon startup.
Session auditing is for use when a user's activities are under investigation. To be sure of capturing all activity during those periods when session auditing is in use, it needs to be in operation ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000095
Group -
The DBMS must produce audit records containing sufficient information to establish what type of events occurred.
Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Without establishing what type of event occurred, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate t...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000096
Group -
The DBMS must produce audit records containing time stamps to establish when the events occurred.
Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Without establishing when events occurred, it is impossible to establish, correlate, and investigate the events re...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000097
Group -
The DBMS must produce audit records containing sufficient information to establish where the events occurred.
Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Without establishing where events occurred, it is impossible to establish, correlate, and investigate the events r...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000098
Group -
The DBMS must produce audit records containing sufficient information to establish the sources (origins) of the events.
Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Without establishing the source of the event, it is impossible to establish, correlate, and investigate the events...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000099
Group -
The DBMS must produce audit records containing sufficient information to establish the outcome (success or failure) of the events.
Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Without information about the outcome of events, security personnel cannot make an accurate assessment as to wheth...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000100
Group -
The DBMS must produce audit records containing sufficient information to establish the identity of any user/subject or process associated with the event.
Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Without information that establishes the identity of the subjects (i.e., users or processes acting on behalf of us...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000101
Group -
The DBMS must include additional, more detailed, organization-defined information in the audit records for audit events identified by type, location, or subject.
Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Reconstruction of harmful events or forensic analysis is not possible if audit records do not contain enough infor...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000116
Group -
The DBMS must use system clocks to generate time stamps for use in audit records and application data.
Internal system clocks are typically a feature of server hardware and are maintained and used by the operating system. They are typically synchronized with an authoritative time server at regular i...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000118
Group -
The audit information produced by the DBMS must be protected from unauthorized read access.
If audit data were to become compromised, then competent forensic analysis and discovery of the true source of potentially malicious system activity is difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. In ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000119
Group -
The audit information produced by the DBMS must be protected from unauthorized modification.
If audit data were to become compromised, then competent forensic analysis and discovery of the true source of potentially malicious system activity is impossible to achieve. To ensure the veraci...Rule Medium Severity -

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.
