Discussion

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

In addition to this SRG, sources of guidance on security and information assurance exist. These include NSA configuration guides, CTOs, DTMs, and IAVMs. The DBMS must be configured in compliance with guidance from all such relevant sources.

Check

Review the DBMS documentation and configuration to determine if the DBMS is configured in accordance with DoW security configuration and implementation guidance, including STIGs, NSA configuration guides, CTOs, and DTMs and IAVMs.

If the DBMS is not configured in accordance with security configuration settings, this is a finding.

Fix

Configure the DBMS in accordance with DoW security configuration and implementation guidance, including STIGs, NSA configuration guides, CTOs, and DTMs and IAVMs.
