Description
Unapproved mechanisms that are used for authentication to the cryptographic module are not validated and therefore cannot be relied upon to provide confidentiality or integrity, and DoD data may be compromised. Network devices utilizing encryption are required to use FIPS-compliant mechanisms for authenticating to cryptographic modules. FIPS 140-2 is the current standard for validating that mechanisms used to access cryptographic modules utilize authentication that meets DoD requirements. However, authentication algorithms must configure security processes to use only FIPS-approved and NIST-recommended authentication algorithms.

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.

Details

Check Text (C-242243r961050_chk)

In the SMS client, verify the TPS FIPS Mode is enabled. 1. For TPS, click Devices, All Devices, and the subject device hostname. 2. Click FIPS Settings and ensure the FIPS Mode is selected. If the TPS is not in FIPS mode, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-45476r754383_fix)

In the SMS client, enable the TPS FIPS Mode. 1. For TPS, click Devices, All Devices, and the subject device hostname. 2. Click FIPS Settings, then check enabled. This must be done in the approved change window, as the TPS will reboot.
