SRG-OS-000057-GPOS-00027
Group -
The Photon operating system must protect audit logs from unauthorized access.
Unauthorized disclosure of audit records can reveal system and configuration data to attackers, thus compromising its confidentiality. Audit information includes all information (e.g., audit recor...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-OS-000063-GPOS-00032
Group -
The Photon operating system must allow only authorized users to configure the auditd service.
Without the capability to restrict which roles and individuals can select which events are audited, unauthorized personnel may be able to prevent the auditing of critical events. Misconfigured audi...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-OS-000064-GPOS-00033
Group -
The Photon operating system must generate audit records when successful/unsuccessful attempts to access privileges occur.
The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications can facilitate the identificat...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-OS-000069-GPOS-00037
Group -
The Photon operating system 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-OS-000070-GPOS-00038
Group -
The Photon operating system 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-OS-000071-GPOS-00039
Group -
The Photon operating system 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-OS-000072-GPOS-00040
Group -
The Photon operating system must require the change of at least eight characters when passwords are changed.
If the operating system allows the user to consecutively reuse extensive portions of passwords, this increases the chances of password compromise by increasing the window of opportunity for attemp...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-OS-000073-GPOS-00041
Group -
The operating system must store only encrypted 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 (i.e., clear text) and easily c...Rule High Severity -
SRG-OS-000074-GPOS-00042
Group -
The Photon operating system must not have the telnet package installed.
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 (i.e., clear text) and easily c...Rule High Severity -
SRG-OS-000075-GPOS-00043
Group -
The Photon operating system must enforce one day as the minimum password lifetime.
Enforcing a minimum password lifetime helps to prevent repeated password changes to defeat the password reuse or history enforcement requirement. If users are allowed to immediately and continually...Rule Medium Severity
Node 2
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.
