Assessment Title
Rule Text
The Windows DNS Server must uniquely identify the other DNS server before responding to a server-to-server transaction.
Description
Discussion Text
Without identifying devices, unidentified or unknown devices may be introduced, thereby facilitating malicious activity. This applies to server-to-server (zone transfer) transactions only and is provided by TSIG/SIG(0), which enforces mutual server authentication using a key that is unique to each server pair, TSIG, or using PKI-based authentication, SIG(0), thus uniquely identifying the other server.
TSIG and SIG(0) are not configurable in Windows DNS Server.
To meet the requirement for authentication between Windows DNS Servers, IPsec will be implemented between the Windows DNS Servers that host any non-Active Directory (AD)-integrated zones.
