Description
For user certificates, each organization obtains certificates from an approved shared service provider, as required by OMB policy. For federal agencies operating a legacy public key infrastructure cross-certified with the Federal Bridge Certification Authority at medium assurance or higher, this Certification Authority will suffice.

Who does this work

10 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-230958r1113789_chk)

Determine if Forescout obtains public key certificates from an appropriate certificate policy through an approved service provider. To review the Web server certificate presented for captive portal/authentication: 1. Log into the Forescout management console. 2. Go to Options >> Certificates >> System Certificates. 3. Locate the certificates where the "Used For" column shows "Web Portal". 4. Ensure all enabled certificates are issued by a trusted CA and are not self-signed. If the ForeScout does not obtain its public key certificates from an appropriate certificate policy through an approved service provider, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-33861r1113752_fix)

Generate a certificate signing request by completing the following procedures: 1. Navigate to Tools >> Options >> Certificates >> System Certificates. 2. On the right of the screen click "Generate CSR". 3. Complete the following fields (bolded fields are necessary for the Common Criteria evaluation and underlined fields have the required selection made): - Common Name – <system hostname> - Organization – <organizational name> - Organizational Unit – <unit name> - Locality – <locality name> - State – <state name> - Country Code – <country code> - Email Address - <email address> - Key Length – <select an approved key length from the drop down list> - Signature Algorithm – <select an approved algorithm from the drop down list> - Key Usages – < Checking all items that apply Client Authentication, Server Authentication and Email Signing> - Validity – <years> 4. Click "Next". 5. When the CSR is generated, scroll down to ensure the public key and common name are present. 6. Click "Scope option – ALL", and then click "Next". 7. Enter a name for system certificate. 8. Check "Enable presenting this certificate". 9. Click "Finish". 10. Click "Apply", and then click "Yes" to save the changes.
