Finding ID Severity Title Description
V-224381 High The BlackBerry UEM server must be maintained at a supported version. Versions of BlackBerry UEM are maintained by BlackBerry for specific periods of time. Unsupported versions will not receive security updates for new vulnerabilities which leaves them subject to exploitation. A list of supported UEM versions is maintained by BlackBerry here: https://www.blackberry.com/us/en/support/software-support-life-cycle. SFR ID: FPT_TUD_EXT.1
V-224387 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server Blackberry Web Services must not be authorized access from external sources unnecessarily. By limiting access to the subset of Administrator UI functions to internal administrators, the risk of an attacker developing a custom application to administer UEM potentially changing pre-configuration items in UEM is reduced SFR ID: FMT_SMF.1.1(2) b / CM-7 b Satisfies: SRG-APP-000142
V-224386 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server must connect to [assignment: [SQL Server]] with an authenticated and secure (encrypted) connection to protect the confidentiality and integrity of transmitted information. Without protection of the transmitted information, confidentiality and integrity may be compromised since unprotected communications can be intercepted and either read or altered. This requirement applies only to those applications that are either distributed or can allow access to data non-locally. Use of this requirement will be limited to situations...
V-224385 Medium All BlackBerry UEM server local accounts created during application installation and configuration must be disabled or removed. A comprehensive account management process that includes automation helps to ensure the accounts designated as requiring attention are consistently and promptly addressed. If an attacker compromises an account, the entire BlackBerry UEM server infrastructure is at risk. Providing automated support functions for the management of accounts will ensure only active...
V-224384 Medium The firewall protecting the BlackBerry UEM server platform must be configured so that only DoD-approved ports, protocols, and services are enabled. (See the DoD Ports, Protocols, Services Management [PPSM] Category Assurance Levels [CAL] list for DoD-approved ports, protocols, and services). All ports, protocols, and services used on DoD networks must be approved and registered via the DoD PPSM process. This is to ensure that a risk assessment has been completed before a new port, protocol, or service is configured on a DoD network and has been approved by proper DoD...
V-224383 Medium The firewall protecting the BlackBerry UEM server platform must be configured to restrict all network traffic to and from all addresses with the exception of ports, protocols, and IP address ranges required to support BlackBerry UEM server and platform functions. Most information systems are capable of providing a wide variety of functions and services. Some of the functions and services, provided by default, may not be necessary to support essential organizational operations. Since BlackBerry UEM server is a critical component of the mobility architecture and must be configured to enable...
V-224382 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server platform must be protected by a DoD-approved firewall. Most information systems are capable of providing a wide variety of functions and services. Some of the functions and services provided by default may not be necessary to support essential organizational operations. Unneeded services and processes provide additional threat vectors and avenues of attack to the information system. The BlackBerry...
V-224380 Medium Authentication of MDM platform accounts must be configured so they are implemented via an enterprise directory service. A comprehensive account management process that includes automation helps to ensure the accounts designated as requiring attention are consistently and promptly addressed. If an attacker compromises an account, the entire BlackBerry UEM server infrastructure is at risk. Providing automated support functions for the management of accounts will ensure only active...
V-224379 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server must be configured to leverage the MDM platform user accounts and groups for BlackBerry UEM server user identification and CAC authentication. A comprehensive account management process that includes automation helps to ensure the accounts designated as requiring attention are consistently and promptly addressed. If an attacker compromises an account, the entire BlackBerry UEM server infrastructure is at risk. Providing automated support functions for the management of accounts will ensure only active...
V-224378 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server must be configured to audit DoD or site-defined auditable events. Note: See VulDiscussion for a list of DoD required auditable events. Without the capability to generate audit records, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident, or identify those responsible for one. Audit records can be generated from various components within the application (e.g., process, module). Certain specific application functionalities may be audited as...
V-224377 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server must be configured to have at least one user in the following Administrator roles: Server primary administrator, security configuration administrator, device user group administrator, or auditor. Having several administrative roles for the BlackBerry UEM server supports separation of duties. This allows administrator-level privileges to be granted granularly, such as giving application management privileges to one group and security policy privileges to another group. This helps prevent administrators from intentionally or inadvertently altering other settings and configurations...
V-224376 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server must be configured to display the required DoD warning banner upon administrator logon. Note: This requirement is not applicable if the TOE platform is selected in FTA_TAB.1.1 in the Security Target (ST). Note: The advisory notice and consent warning message is not required if the general purpose OS or network device displays an advisory notice and consent warning message when the administrator logs on to the general purpose OS or network device prior to accessing the BlackBerry UEM server or BlackBerry UEM...
V-224375 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server must be configured to transfer BlackBerry UEM server logs to another server for storage, analysis, and reporting. Note: BlackBerry UEM server logs include logs of MDM events and logs transferred to the BlackBerry UEM server by MDM agents of managed devices. Audit logs enable monitoring of security-relevant events and subsequent forensics when breaches occur. Since the BlackBerry UEM server has limited capability to store mobile device log files and perform analysis and reporting of mobile device log files, the BlackBerry UEM server must have the capability to transfer log files to...
V-224374 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server or platform must be configured to initiate a session lock after a 15-minute period of inactivity. A session time-out lock is a temporary action taken when a user (MDM system administrator) stops work and moves away from the immediate physical vicinity of the information system but does not log out because of the temporary nature of the absence. Rather than relying on the user to manually...
V-224372 Medium The BlackBerry UEM server must be configured to communicate the following commands to the MDM Agent: read audit logs kept by the MD. Audit logs enable monitoring of security-relevant events and subsequent forensics when breaches occur. For audit logs to be useful, administrators must have the ability to view them. SFR ID: FMT_SMF.1.1(1) #19
V-224371 Low The BlackBerry UEM server must [selection: invoke platform-provided functionality, implement functionality] to generate an audit record of the following auditable events: c. [selection: Commands issued to the MDM Agent]. Audit logs enable monitoring of security-relevant events and subsequent forensics when breaches occur. For audit logs to be useful, administrators must have the ability to view them. SFR ID: FAU_GEN.1.1(1)
