ICSF resources must be protected in accordance with security requirements.

To mitigate the risk of unauthorized access to sensitive information by entities that have been issued certificates by DoW-approved PKIs, all DoW systems (e.g., web servers and web portals) must be properly configured to incorporate access control methods that do not rely solely on the possession of a certificate for access. Successful authentication must not automatically give an entity access to an asset or security boundary. Authorization procedures and controls must be implemented to ensure each authenticated entity also has a validated and current authorization. Authorization is the process of determining whether an entity, once authenticated, is permitted to access a specific asset. Information systems use access control policies and enforcement mechanisms to implement this requirement.

From the ISPF command shell, for each following resource classes: {CRYPTOZ, CSFKEYS, CSFSERV, GCSFKEYS , GXCSFKEY, and XCSFKEY} enter

RL <Class> * AUTHUSER

Consult the ISCF Administrator, security administrator and the site security plan for appropriate user access.

If RACF access rules for each resource are restricted to appropriate users, this is not a finding.

Configure access for resources in accordance with the site security plan.
