Who does this work

8 NICE work roles and 7 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.

Verify that AlmaLinux OS 9 is using the TuxCare ESU repositories with the following command: $ dnf repolist | grep tuxcare tuxcare-base TuxCare Enterprise Support for AlmaLinux 9.2 - Base tuxcare-esu TuxCare Enterprise Support for AlmaLinux 9.2 - ESU tuxcare-radar TuxCare Radar If the tuxcare-esu repository is not enabled, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-73057r1107615_fix)

FIPS-validated packages are available from TuxCare as part of the Enterprise Support for AlmaLinux product line. Access the packages by purchasing an ESU license key. Configure the operating system to implement FIPS mode with the following commands (replace 9.2 with 9.6 if using that version of ESU): $ dnf -y install https://repo.tuxcare.com/tuxcare/tuxcare-release-latest-9.2.noarch.rpm $ tuxctl --license-key ESU-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX $ dnf -y upgrade $ fips-mode-setup --enable $ reboot
