The Dell OS10 Switch must use FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms for authentication to a cryptographic module.

Description
Unapproved mechanisms that are used for authentication to the cryptographic module are not validated and therefore cannot be relied upon to provide confidentiality or integrity, and DOD data may be compromised. Network devices using encryption are required to use FIPS-compliant mechanisms for authenticating to cryptographic modules. FIPS 140-2 is the current standard for validating that mechanisms used to access cryptographic modules use authentication that meets DOD requirements. However, authentication algorithms must configure security processes to use only FIPS-approved and NIST-recommended authentication algorithms. Satisfies: SRG-APP-000179-NDM-000265, SRG-APP-000172-NDM-000259

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.

Determine if the network device uses FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms for authentication to a cryptographic module. Review the FIPS status to verify that FIPS mode is enabled, as shown below: OS10# show fips status FIPS mode: Enabled Crypto Library: OpenSSL 1.0.2zg-fips 7 Feb 2023 FIPS Object Module: DELL OpenSSL FIPS Crypto Module v2.6 July 2021 OS10# If the network device is not configured to use a FIPS-approved authentication algorithm to a cryptographic module, this is a finding.
