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-223252r961050_chk)

Review the SharePoint server configuration to ensure required cryptographic protections using cryptographic modules complying with applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance are implemented. Open Registry Editor. Navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Cryptography\Configuration\SSL\00010002". If the REG_SZ "Functions" value does not exist, this is a finding. Open the REG_SZ "Functions" value. If any DES or RC4 cipher suites exist in the text string, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-24913r821358_fix)

Configure the SharePoint server to implement required cryptographic protections using cryptographic modules complying with applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance. Open MMC. Click “File”, “Add/Remove Snap-in”, and “add Group Policy Object Editor”. Enter a name for the Group Policy Object, or accept the default. Click “Finish”. Click “OK”. Navigate to Computer Policy >> Computer Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> Network >> SSL Configuration Settings. Right-click “SSL Configuration Settings”, click “SSL Cipher Suite Order”, and then click “Edit”. In the “SSL Cipher Suite Order” dialog box, select "Enabled". Under “Options”, in the “SSL Cipher Suites” text box, enter desired cipher suites that are not DES or RC4. Click “OK”.
