Description
To ensure accountability and prevent unauthenticated access, organizational users must be identified and authenticated to prevent potential misuse and compromise of the system. Organizational users include organizational employees or individuals the organization deems to have equivalent status of employees (e.g., contractors). Organizational users (and any processes acting on behalf of users) must be uniquely identified and authenticated for all accesses, except the following: (i) Accesses explicitly identified and documented by the organization. Organizations document specific user actions that can be performed on the information system without identification or authentication; and (ii) Accesses that occur through authorized use of group authenticators without individual authentication. Organizations may require unique identification of individuals using shared accounts, for detailed accountability of individual activity.

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.

Check Text (C-220363r960969_chk)

Review DBMS settings to determine whether organizational users are uniquely identified and authenticated when logging on/connecting to the system. Perform the check from the MarkLogic Server Admin Interface with a user that holds administrative-level privileges. 1. Click the Groups icon. 2. Click the group in which the App Server to be checked resides (e.g., Default). 3. Click the App Servers icon on the left tree menu. 4. Select each of the App Servers. 5. Inspect the selected authentication method. If "application-level" is selected and a user other than "nobody" (or equivalent) is set as the default user, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-22067r401541_fix)

Configure MarkLogic settings to uniquely identify and authenticate all organizational users who log on/connect to the system. Perform the fix from the MarkLogic Server Admin Interface with a user that holds administrative-level privileges. 1. Click the Groups icon. 2. Click the group in which the App Server to be checked resides (e.g., Default). 3. Click the App Servers icon on the left tree menu. 4. Select each of the App Servers. 5. Inspect the selected authentication method. If "application-level" is selected and a user other than "nobody" (or equivalent) is set as the default user, then change the default user to "nobody".
