All UEM Agent cryptography supporting DoD functionality must be FIPS 140-2 validated.

Overview

Finding ID	Version	Rule ID	IA Controls	Severity
V-234248	SRG-APP-000555-UEM-100014	SV-234248r617402_rule		High

Description
Unapproved cryptographic algorithms cannot be relied on to provide confidentiality or integrity, and DoD data could be compromised as a result. The most common vulnerabilities with cryptographic modules are those associated with poor implementation. FIPS 140-2 validation provides assurance that the relevant cryptography has been implemented correctly. FIPS 140-2 validation is also a strict requirement for use of cryptography in the federal government for protecting unclassified data. Satisfies: FCS Reference: PP-UEM-404200

Check Text ( C-37433r612050_chk )
Verify all UEM Agent cryptography supporting DoD functionality is FIPS 140-2 validated. If all UEM Agent cryptography supporting DoD functionality is not FIPS 140-2 validated, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-37398r612051_fix)
Configure the UEM Agent cryptography supporting DoD functionality for FIPS 140-2 mode.
