IA-13(01) Protection of Cryptographic Keys

Control

Cryptographic keys that protect access tokens are generated, managed, and protected from disclosure and misuse.

Discussion

Identity assertions and access tokens are typically digitally signed. The private keys used to sign these assertions and tokens are protected commensurate with the impact of the system and information resources that can be accessed.

Assessment Objective

  1. cryptographic keys that protect access tokens are generated;
  2. cryptographic keys that protect access tokens are managed;
  3. cryptographic keys that protect access tokens are protected from disclosure; and
  4. cryptographic keys that protect access tokens are protected from disclosure and misuse

Assessment Method

Examine

Identification and authentication policy; procedures addressing cryptographic key establishment and management; system design documentation; cryptographic mechanisms; system configuration settings and associated documentation; system security plan; other relevant documents or records

Interview

System/network administrators; organizational personnel with information security responsibilities; organizational personnel with responsibilities for cryptographic key establishment and/or management
