The Cisco ASA must be configured to automatically audit account removal actions.


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-239900 CASA-ND-000120 SV-239900r666063_rule Medium
Description
Account management, as a whole, ensures access to the network device is being controlled in a secure manner by granting access to only authorized personnel. Auditing account removal actions will support account management procedures. When device management accounts are terminated, user or service accessibility may be affected. Auditing also ensures authorized active accounts remain enabled and available for use when required.
