Centralized management of authentication settings increases the security of remote and nonlocal access methods. This control is a particularly important protection against the insider threat. Audit records for administrator accounts access to the organization's network devices can be more readily analyzed for trends and anomalies. The alternative method of defining administrator accounts on each device exposes the device configuration to remote access authentication attacks and system administrators with multiple authenticators for each network device.
Verify the Juniper SRX is configured to forward logon requests to a RADIUS or TACACS+. From the CLI operational mode enter: show system radius-server or show system tacplus-server If the Juniper SRX is not configured to use at least one RADIUS or TACACS+ server, this is a finding.
Configure the Juniper SRX to forward logon requests to a RADIUS or TACACS+. Remove local users configured on the device (CCI-000213) so the AAA server cannot default to using a local account.
[edit]
set system tacplus-server address
