Description
Passwords need to be protected at all times, and encryption is the standard method for protecting passwords. If passwords are not encrypted, they can be plainly read (i.e., clear text) and easily compromised. This is applicable to the account of last resort which uses a password.

Check Text (C-258615r961029_chk)

In the ICS Web UI, navigate to System >> Configuration >> Inbound SSL Options. Under "Allowed SSL and TLS Version", if "Accept only TLS 1.2 (maximize security)" is checked. Navigate to System >> Configuration >> Outbound SSL Options. Under "Allowed SSL and TLS Version", if "Accept only TLS 1.2 (maximize security)" is checked. If the ICS does not transmit only encrypted representations of passwords, this is a finding.
