Who does this work

13 NICE work roles and 8 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-251247r961149_chk)

Review the permissions granted to users by the operating system/file system on the database files, database log files, and database backup files. If any user/role who is not an authorized system administrator with a need to know or database administrator with a need to know, or a system account for running DBMS processes, is permitted to read/view any of these files, this is a finding. Review the directory contents and files and verify that the appropriate file permissions are set. Verify that the file owner and group is set to Redis Labs or a group defined per site requirements. To check permissions of log files (Note: This may vary depending on the installation path.): # /var/opt/redislabs/log To check persisted files from memory if they are being used run the following command (Note: This may vary depending on the installation path.) # ls -ltr /var/opt/redislabs/persist/redis/ To check the default file permissions to verify that all authenticated users can only read and modify their own files: # cat/etc/login.defs|grep UMASK Verify the value is set to 077 or an appropriate organizationally defined setting. Investigate the permissions on these files. If the permissions allow access by other, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-54636r804930_fix)

Configure the operating system to define default permissions for all authenticated users in such a way that the user can only read and modify their own files. Add or edit the line for the "UMASK" parameter in "/etc/login.defs" file to "077": UMASK 077 Set the permissions of the log files (/var/opt/redislabs/log) and persisted files (/var/opt/redislabs/persist/redis/) to an appropriate organizationally defined setting.
