03.05.02E Password Managers

Statement

• Employ {{ insert: param, A.03.05.02E.ODP.01 }} to generate and manage passwords.

• Protect the passwords using {{ insert: param, A.03.05.02E.ODP.02 }}.

Guidance

A potential risk of using password managers is that adversaries can target the collection of passwords generated by the password manager. Therefore, the passwords require strong protection, including encrypting the passwords. This requirement enhances SP 800-171 requirement 03.05.07.

Statement

• (includes preempt) Ensure that the threat event does not have an impact.

  • Reduce likelihood of occurrence and/or reduce likelihood of impact.

  • The adversary’s efforts or resources cannot be applied or are wasted.

• (includes delay and exert) Make it more difficult for threat events to cause adverse impacts or consequences.

  • Reduce likelihood of impact and reduce level of impact.

  • Adversary activities are restricted in scope, fail to achieve full effect, do not take place in accordance with adversary timeline, or require greater resources than adversary had planned.
