Who does this work

7 NICE work roles and 5 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-269771r1051698_chk)

Review the Dell OS10 Switch configuration to verify that it enforces the limit of three consecutive invalid logon attempts and a 15-minute lockout period as shown in the example below: password-attributes lockout-period 15 Note: Since the max-retry value of three is the default value, it will not be displayed when viewing the configuration. So, if the password-attributes max-retry value is not displayed then it is set to three attempts. If the Dell OS10 Switch is not configured to enforce the limit of three consecutive invalid logon attempts and a 15-minute lockout period, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-73705r1051697_fix)

Configure the Dell OS10 Switch to enforce the limit of three consecutive invalid logon attempts and a 15-minute lockout as shown in the example below: OS10(config)# password-attributes max-retry 3 lockout-period 15
