  • SRG-APP-000092-DB-000208

    Group
  • SQL Server 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-000101-DB-000044

    Group
  • SQL Server 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...

  • SRG-APP-000109-DB-000049

    Group
  • SQL Server must by default shut down upon audit failure, to include the unavailability of space for more audit log records; or must be configurable to shut down upon audit failure.

    It is critical that when SQL Server is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required, it takes action to mitigate the failure. Audit processing failures include: software/hardware errors; fa...

  • SRG-APP-000109-DB-000321

    Group
  • SQL Server must be configurable to overwrite audit log records, oldest first (First-In-First-Out - FIFO), in the event of unavailability of space for more audit log records.

    It is critical that when SQL Server is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required, it take action to mitigate the failure. Audit processing failures include; software/hardware errors; fai...

  • SRG-APP-000118-DB-000059

    Group
  • The audit information produced by SQL Server must be protected from unauthorized access, modification, and deletion.

    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-000122-DB-000203

    Group
  • SQL Server must protect its audit configuration from authorized and unauthorized access and modification.

    Protecting audit data also includes identifying and protecting the tools used to view and manipulate log data. Therefore, protecting audit tools is necessary to prevent unauthorized operation on au...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000133-DB-000179

    Group
  • SQL Server must limit privileges to change software modules and links to software external to SQL Server.

    If the system were to allow any user to make changes to software libraries, then those changes might be implemented without undergoing the appropriate testing and approvals that are part of a robus...

  • SRG-APP-000133-DB-000179

    Group
  • SQL Server must limit privileges to change software modules, to include stored procedures, functions and triggers, and links to software external to SQL Server.

    If the system were to allow any user to make changes to software libraries, then those changes might be implemented without undergoing the appropriate testing and approvals that are part of a robus...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000133-DB-000198

    Group
  • SQL Server software installation account must be restricted to authorized users.

    When dealing with change control issues, it should be noted any changes to the hardware, software, and/or firmware components of the information system and/or application can have significant effec...

  • SRG-APP-000133-DB-000199

    Group
  • Database software, including DBMS configuration files, must be stored in dedicated directories, separate from the host OS and other applications.

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.
