Vulnerability discussion

Individual authenticators for Voice Video endpoints are typically PKI certificates. In many cases, developers ship information system components with factory default authentication credentials to allow for initial installation and configuration. Default authentication credentials are often well known, are easily discoverable, and present a significant security risk. For Voice Video systems, the Voice Video endpoints must authenticate as a network device using 802.1X and register with a session manager. Managing the unique certificates for each Voice Video endpoint ensures communications are restricted to only known devices.

Check content

Review the Voice Video system security plan (SSP). Ensure the organization manages Voice Video endpoint certificates by establishing initial authenticator content for Voice Video endpoints. If the organization does not manages Voice Video endpoint certificates by establishing initial authenticator content for Voice Video endpoints, this is a finding.

Fix text

Document in the Voice Video SSP each Voice Video endpoint certificate in the inventory. Verify and document Voice Video endpoint certificates by establishing initial authenticator content for Voice Video endpoints.

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.
