The Central Log Server must be configured to use multifactor authentication for network access to privileged accounts such that one of the factors is provided by a device separate from the system gaining access.
Description
Discussion Text
Using an authentication device, such as a DoW common access card (CAC) or token separate from the information system, ensures that even if the information system is compromised, that compromise will not affect credentials stored on the authentication device.
Multifactor solutions that require devices separate from information systems gaining access include, for example, hardware tokens providing time-based or challenge-response authenticators and smart cards, such as the U.S. Government Personal Identity Verification card and the DoW CAC.
A privileged account is any information system account with authorizations of a privileged user.
Network access is any access to an application by a user (or process acting on behalf of a user) where said access is obtained through a network connection.
