Discussion

Configuring the application to implement organizationwide 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. Configuration settings are the set of parameters that can be changed that affect the security posture and/or functionality of the system. Security-related parameters are those parameters impacting the security state of the application, including the parameters required to satisfy other security control requirements.

Check Content

This is a placeholder for best-practice security configurations not addressed via the other IA Controls and CCIs in this document. These instances are rare, and this must only be used in a STIG when a better control match cannot be found and best security practices are being leveraged. 

If this control is not required, this requirement is Not Applicable.

Fix Text

Tie the pertinent requirement to an appropriate IA control.
