Assessment Title
Rule Text
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS must use the "SSSD" package for multifactor authentication services.
Description
Discussion Text
Without the use of multifactor authentication, the ease of access to privileged functions is greatly increased.
Multifactor authentication requires using two or more factors to achieve authentication.
Factors include:
1) Something a user knows (e.g., password/PIN);
2) Something a user has (e.g., cryptographic identification device, token); and
3) Something a user is (e.g., biometric).
A privileged account is defined as an information system account with authorizations of a privileged user.
Network access is defined as access to an information system by a user (or a process acting on behalf of a user) communicating through a network (e.g., local area network, wide area network, or the internet).
The DoW common access card (CAC) with DoW-approved PKI is an example of multifactor authentication.
