The operating system must use mechanisms for authentication to a cryptographic module meeting the requirements of applicable federal laws, Executive orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance for such authentication.

Description
Encryption is only as good as the encryption modules utilized. Unapproved cryptographic module algorithms cannot be verified, and cannot be relied upon to provide confidentiality or integrity, and DoD data may be compromised due to weak algorithms. Applications utilizing encryption are required to use approved encryption modules meeting the requirements of applicable federal laws, Executive orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance. FIPS 140-2 is the current standard for validating cryptographic modules, and NSA Type-X (where X=1, 2, 3, 4) products are NSA-certified hardware based encryption modules. Satisfies: SRG-OS-000120, SRG-OS-000169

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-216402r958358_chk)

This check applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone that you are currently securing. # zonename If the command output is "global", this check applies. The Crypto Management profile is required to execute this command. Check to ensure that FIPS-140 encryption mode is enabled. # cryptoadm list fips-140| grep -c "is disabled" If the output of this command is not "0", this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-17636r371295_fix)

The Crypto Management profile is required to execute this command. This action applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone that you are currently securing. # zonename If the command output is "global", this action applies. Enable FIPS-140 mode. # pfexec cryptoadm enable fips-140 Reboot the system as requested.
