Rules and Groups employed by this XCCDF Profile

  • SRG-APP-000412-NDM-000331

    Group
  • The FortiGate device must implement cryptographic mechanisms using a FIPS 140-2 approved algorithm to protect the confidentiality of remote maintenance sessions.

    This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead of FTP, and HTTPS instead of HTTP. If unsecured protocols (lacking cryp...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-APP-000186-NDM-000266

    Group
  • The FortiGate device must terminate idle sessions after 10 minutes of inactivity.

    If a device management session or connection remains open after management is completed, it may be hijacked by an attacker and used to compromise or damage the network device. Nonlocal device mana...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000190-NDM-000267

    Group
  • The FortiGate device must terminate idle sessions after 10 minutes of inactivity.

    Terminating an idle session within a short time period reduces the window of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take control of a management session enabled on the console or console port th...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-APP-000224-NDM-000270

    Group
  • The FortiGate device must generate unique session identifiers using a FIPS 140-2-approved random number generator.

    Sequentially generated session IDs can be easily guessed by an attacker. Employing the concept of randomness in the generation of unique session identifiers helps to protect against brute-force att...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000231-NDM-000271

    Group
  • The FortiGate device must only allow authorized administrators to view or change the device configuration, system files, and other files stored either in the device or on removable media (such as a flash drive).

    This requirement is intended to address the confidentiality and integrity of system information at rest (e.g., network device rule sets) when it is located on a storage device within the network de...

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.
