Passwords provide a form of access control that prevents unauthorized individuals from accessing computing resources and sensitive data. Passwords may also be a source of entropy for generation of key encryption or data encryption keys. If a password is not required to access data, then this data is accessible to any adversary who obtains physical possession of the device. Requiring that a password be successfully entered before the mobile device data is unencrypted mitigates this risk.
This validation procedure is performed on both the MDM Administration Console and the LG Android device. On the MDM console, do the following: 1. Ask the MDM administrator to display the "Password" setting in the MDM console. 2. Verify a password policy has been configured. 3. Verify a password policy has been assigned to all groups. On the LG Android device: 1. Unlock the device. 2. Navigate to the password entry screen: Settings >> General >> Security (or Fingerprints & security) >> Lock screen >> Select screen lock. 3. Verify password is enabled and cannot be disabled (grayed out). If on the MDM console a password policy is not configured or on the LG Android device the password is not enabled or can be disabled, this is a finding.
Configure the mobile operating system to force successful entry of a password before data resident on the device is decrypted. On the MDM Administration Console, configure a "Password" policy and assign it to all groups.
