The Juniper SRX Services Gateway VPN IKE must use NIST FIPS-validated cryptography to implement encryption services for unclassified VPN traffic.
Overview
| Finding ID | Version | Rule ID | IA Controls | Severity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| V-214691 | JUSX-VN-000024 | SV-214691r383878_rule | Medium |
| Description |
|---|
| Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. The network element must implement cryptographic modules adhering to the higher standards approved by the federal government since this provides assurance they have been tested and validated. |
