Discussion

The DOD standard for authentication is DOD-approved PKI certificates. Once a PKI certificate has been validated, it must be mapped to a database management system (DBMS) user account for the authenticated identity to be meaningful to the DBMS and useful for authorization decisions.

Check Content

Review DBMS configuration to verify DBMS user accounts are being mapped directly to unique identifying information within the validated PKI certificate.

If user accounts are not being mapped to authenticated identities, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Configure the DBMS to map the authenticated identity directly to the DBMS user account.
