Check Text ( C-41091r4_chk )
Verify the MDIS server and agent verify the integrity of all operating system files, device drivers, and security enforcement mechanisms at startup and at least every six hours thereafter using one or more DoD approved cryptographic mechanisms that compare attributes of the operating system configuration to a known good baseline. Talk to the site system administrator and have them show this capability exists in the MDIS server. Also, review MDIS product documentation.

Mark as a finding if the MDIS server does not have required features.
Fix Text (F-36640r3_fix)
Use a MDIS product that verifies the integrity of all operating system files, device drivers, and security enforcement mechanisms at startup and at least every six hours thereafter using one or more DoD approved cryptographic mechanisms that compare attributes of the operating system configuration to a known good baseline and enable the features.
