Description
Without conforming to FICAM-issued profiles, the information system may not be interoperable with FICAM-authentication protocols, such as SAML 2.0 and OpenID 2.0. Use of FICAM-issued profiles addresses open identity management standards. This requirement only applies to components where this is specific to the function of the device or has the concept of a nonorganizational user, (e.g., ALG capability that is the front end for an application in a DMZ).

ℹ️ Check
If the ALG does not provide user authentication intermediary services, this is not applicable. Verify the ALG conforms to FICAM-issued profiles. If the ALG does not conform to FICAM-issued profiles, this is a finding.

✔️ Fix
If user authentication intermediary services are provided, configure ALG to conform to FICAM-issued profiles.
