Assessment Title
Rule Text
The WebSphere Liberty Server must use FIPS 140-3-approved encryption modules when authenticating users and processes.
Description
Discussion Text
Encryption is only as good as the encryption modules in use. Unapproved cryptographic module algorithms cannot be verified and cannot be relied upon to provide confidentiality or integrity, and DoW data may be compromised due to weak algorithms. The use of TLS provides confidentiality of data in transit between the application server and client. FIPS 140-3-approved TLS versions include TLS V1.0 or greater.
TLS must be enabled and non-FIPS-approved SSL versions must be disabled. NIST SP 800-52 specifies the preferred configurations for government systems.
