Description
Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised information system accounts, is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations. Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify the risk from insider threats and the advanced persistent threat.

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.

From the BIG-IP GUI: 1. System. 2. Logs. 3. Configuration. 4. Options. 5. Under Local Traffic Logging: a. MCP: Notice. b. SSL: Informational. c. Traffic Management OS: Informational. 6. Under Audit Logging: a. MCP: Enable. From the BIG-IP console, type the following commands: tmsh list sys daemon-log-settings tmm os-log-level Note: This command must return a value of "informational". tmsh list sys daemon-log-settings tmm ssl-log-level Note: This must return a value of "informational": tmsh list sys daemon-log-settings mcpd audit Note: This must return a value of "enabled". tmsh list sys daemon-log-settings mcpd log-level Note: This must return a value of "notice". tmsh list sys db log.ssl.level value Note: This must return a value of "informational". If the BIG-IP appliance is not configured to audit the execution of privileged functions, this is a finding.
