Description
This requirement supports nonrepudiation of actions taken by an administrator and is required to maintain the integrity of the configuration management process. All configuration changes to the network device are logged, and administrators authenticate with two-factor authentication before gaining administrative access. Together, these processes will ensure the administrators can be held accountable for the configuration changes they implement. To meet this requirement, the network device must log administrator access and activity.

Who does this work

12 NICE work roles and 9 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-220578r1205849_chk)

Review the Cisco switch configuration to verify that it logs administrator activity as shown in the example below: hostname R1 ! logging userinfo ! … … … archive log config logging enable logging size 1000 notify syslog contenttype plaintext hidekeys ! Note: The logging userinfo global configuration command will generate a log when a user increases their privilege level. If logging of administrator activity is not configured, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-22282r1192875_fix)

Configure the switch to log administrator activity as shown in the example below: SW4(config)#logging userinfo SW4(config)#archive SW4(config-archive)#log config SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#logging enable SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#logging size 1000 SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#notify syslog contenttype plaintext SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#hidekeys SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#end
