II - Mission Support Sensitive

Rules and Groups employed by this XCCDF Profile

  • SRG-APP-000167-NDM-000255

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one lowercase character be used for local accounts.

    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-NDM-000256

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one numeric character be used for local accounts.

    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...

  • SRG-APP-000169-NDM-000257

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one special character be used for local accounts.

    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-NDM-000329

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must require that when a password is changed, the characters are changed in at least eight of the positions within the password.

    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-000190-NDM-000267

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must terminate all network connections associated with a session after five minutes of inactivity.

    Terminating an idle session within a short time period reduces the window of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take immediate control of a management session enabled on the console or conso...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-APP-000373-NDM-000298

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks using redundant authoritative time sources.

    The loss of connectivity to a particular authoritative time source will result in the loss of time synchronization (free-run mode) and increasingly inaccurate time stamps on audit events and other ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000374-NDM-000299

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must record time stamps for audit records that can be mapped to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

    If time stamps are not consistently applied and there is no common time reference, it is difficult to perform forensic analysis. Time stamps generated by the application include date and time. Tim...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000435-NDM-000315

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must be configured to protect against denial-of-service (DoS) attacks by limit the number of concurrent sessions to an organization-defined number.

    DoS is a condition when a resource is not available for legitimate users. When this occurs, the organization either cannot accomplish its mission or must operate at degraded capacity. Limiting the...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000515-NDM-000325

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must be configured to send logs to a central log server.

    Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Off-loading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity. Sa...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000317

    Group
  • The NSX Manager must not provide environment information to third parties.

    Providing technical details about an environment's infrastructure to third parties could unknowingly expose sensitive information to bad actors if intercepted.

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.
