Vulnerability discussion

If the report generation capability does not support after-the-fact investigations, it is difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events leading up to an outage or attack, or identify those responses for one. This capability is also required to comply with applicable Federal laws and DoD policies.The report generation capability must support after-the-fact investigations of security incidents either natively or through the use of third-party tools.

Check content

Examine the site System Security Plan (SSP) or other documentation. Verify there is a documented procedure for when security incident reports need to be exported. If a procedure for providing report generation that supports after-the-fact investigations of security incidents has not been documented, this is a finding.

Fix text

From the management console, navigate to the "Threats" menu. 1. Select the security incident in question. View all after-the-fact information. 2. Click "Generate Report" to create a report in Security Threat Information Exchange (STIX) or Malware Attribution Enumeration and Characterization (MAEC) format. 3. Click "Threat Information" to export security incident-related information such as file hashes and IP addresses (in ".csv" format).

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.
