Vulnerability discussion

Configuring the operating system to implement organization-wide security implementation guides and security checklists ensures compliance with federal standards and establishes a common security baseline across DoD that reflects the most restrictive security posture consistent with operational requirements.

Check content

Query the CA VM:Secure product rules. If there are product rules granting access to the disk on which the “DASD CONFIG” file resides for system administrators or DASD administrators only, this is not a finding.

Fix text

Create rules in the CA VM:Secure product Rules Facility that restricts access to the disk where the “DASD CONFIG” file resides to system administrators or DASD administrators only.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
