The CA-ACF2 LOGONID with the REFRESH attribute must have procedures for utilization.

Configuring the operating system 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.

From the ACF Command screen enter: SET LID LIST IF(REFRESH)

If procedures exist to utilize the logonid with the REFRESH attribute to refresh ACF2 global options, this is not a finding.

Example of a suggested procedure follows:

When the ISSO determines it necessary to refresh the ACF2 global options, the ISSO will do the following:

-Activate the REFRESH ID with the following setting(s): NOSUSPEND NOPSWD EXP PASSWORD(new password)

-Instruct Operations to perform the REFRESH.

-Deactivate the REFRESH ID with the following setting: SUSPEND

If no procedures exist in accordance with the STIG requirements to utilize the logonid with the REFRESH attribute to refresh ACF2 global options, this is a finding.

Review security procedures for defining LOGONIDs and develop documentation of requirements for the LOGONID associated with the REFRESH attribute.

Example of a suggested procedure follows: When the ISSO determines it necessary to refresh the ACF2 global options, the ISSO will do the following:

-Activate the required REFRESH ID with the following setting(s): NOSUSPEND NOPSWD EXP PASSWORD(new password)

-Instruct Operations to perform the REFRESH using the newly activated REFRESH ID. -After refresh is completed.

-Deactivate the REFRESH ID with the following setting: SUSPEND

This procedure should be documented in the Site Security Plan.
