Discussion

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.

Check

From the ACF Command enter: SET CONTROL(GSO) LIST RULEOPTS

If the following options are defined, this is not a finding.

NO$NOSORT CENTRAL CHANGE DECOMP(AUDIT SECURITY) | DECOMP(AUDIT) | DECOMP(SECURITY)

The other RULEOPTS values should be assigned carefully as they affect the Rules and Infostorage databases.

Fix

Configure the GSO RULEOPTS record values to conform to the following requirements.

NO$NOSORT CENTRAL CHANGE DECOMP(AUDIT SECURITY) | DECOMP(AUDIT) | DECOMP(SECURITY)

The other RULEOPTS values should be assigned carefully as they affect the Rules and Infostorage databases.

Example: SET C(GSO) INSERT RULEOPTS NO$NOSORT CENTRAL CHANGE NOCOMPDYN DECOMP(AUDIT SECURITY) F ACF2,REFRESH(RULEOPTS)
