AOS, when used as a VPN Gateway, must use an approved Commercial Solution for Classified (CSfC) when transporting classified traffic across an unclassified network.

Description
Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of using encryption to protect data. The National Security Agency/Central Security Service's (NSA/CSS) CSfC program enables commercial products to be used in layered solutions to protect classified National Security Systems (NSS) data. Currently, Suite B cryptographic algorithms are specified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and are used by the NSA's Information Assurance Directorate in solutions approved for protecting classified and unclassified NSS. However, quantum-resistant algorithms will be required for future required Suite B implementations. Satisfies: SRG-NET-000352-VPN-001460, SRG-NET-000565-VPN-002390, SRG-NET-000565-VPN-002400

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.

Check Text (C-266986r1040894_chk)

If AOS is not being used for CSFC, this requirement is not applicable. 1. Verify the AOS configuration with the following command: show crypto-local ipsec-map Note the IKEv2 Policy number for each configured map. 2. For each configured policy number, run the following command: show crypto isakmp policy <IKEv2 Policy #> 3. Verify each configured transform-set by running the following command: show crypto ipsec transform-set If the configured IPsec map, ISAKMP policy, and transform-set do not contain the following, this is a finding: ECDCA 384 certificate IKEv2 policy with AES256, SHA-384, ECDSA-384, Group 20 Transform set with AES-256-GCM

Fix Text (F-70813r1040894_fix)

Configure AOS with the following commands: 1. crypto pki csr ec curve_name secp384r1 common_name <common_name> country <US> state_or_province <state> city <city> organization <org> unit <unit> email <email> show crypto pki csr 2. Use DOD PKI to generate a public certificate based on the CSR. 3. Using the web GUI, navigate to Configuration >> System >> Certificates >> Import Certificates. 4. Click the plus sign (+) and enter "Certificate name:", browse to the public certificate file, choose the appropriate format, "ServerCert" type, and click "Submit". 5. Navigate to Configuration >> System >> Admin and choose the imported certificate under "Server Certificate" and click "Submit". 6.
