IA-03 Device Identification and Authentication

Control

Uniquely identify and authenticate [Assignement: devices and/or types of devices] before establishing a [Selection(one-or-more): local; remote; network] connection.

Discussion

Devices that require unique device-to-device identification and authentication are defined by type, device, or a combination of type and device. Organization-defined device types include devices that are not owned by the organization. Systems use shared known information (e.g., Media Access Control [MAC], Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol [TCP/IP] addresses) for device identification or organizational authentication solutions (e.g., Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.1x and Extensible Authentication Protocol [EAP], RADIUS server with EAP-Transport Layer Security [TLS] authentication, Kerberos) to identify and authenticate devices on local and wide area networks. Organizations determine the required strength of authentication mechanisms based on the security categories of systems and mission or business requirements. Because of the challenges of implementing device authentication on a large scale, organizations can restrict the application of the control to a limited number/type of devices based on mission or business needs.

Assessment Objective

[Assignement: devices and/or types of devices] are uniquely identified and authenticated before establishing a [Selection(one-or-more): local; remote; network] connection.

Assessment Method

Examine

Identification and authentication policy system security plan procedures addressing device identification and authentication system design documentation list of devices requiring unique identification and authentication device connection reports system configuration settings and associated documentation other relevant documents or records

Interview

Organizational personnel with operational responsibilities for device identification and authentication organizational personnel with information security responsibilities system/network administrators system developers

IA-03(01) Cryptographic Bidirectional Authentication

Control

Authenticate [Assignement: devices and/or types of devices] before establishing [Selection(one-or-more): local; remote; network] connection using bidirectional authentication that is cryptographically based.

Discussion

A local connection is a connection with a device that communicates without the use of a network. A network connection is a connection with a device that communicates through a network. A remote connection is a connection with a device that communicates through an external network. Bidirectional authentication provides stronger protection to validate the identity of other devices for connections that are of greater risk.

Assessment Objective

[Assignement: devices and/or types of devices] are authenticated before establishing [Selection(one-or-more): local; remote; network] connection using bidirectional authentication that is cryptographically based.

Assessment Method

IA-03(03) Dynamic Address Allocation

Control

  1. Where addresses are allocated dynamically, standardize dynamic address allocation lease information and the lease duration assigned to devices in accordance with [Assignement: organization-defined lease information and lease duration] ; and
  2. Audit lease information when assigned to a device.

Discussion

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an example of a means by which clients can dynamically receive network address assignments.

Assessment Objective

    1. dynamic address allocation lease information assigned to devices where addresses are allocated dynamically are standardized in accordance with [Assignement: lease information];
    2. dynamic address allocation lease duration assigned to devices where addresses are allocated dynamically are standardized in accordance with [Assignement: lease duration];
  2. lease information is audited when assigned to a device.

Assessment Method

IA-03(04) Device Attestation

Control

Handle device identification and authentication based on attestation by [Assignement: configuration management process].

Discussion

Device attestation refers to the identification and authentication of a device based on its configuration and known operating state. Device attestation can be determined via a cryptographic hash of the device. If device attestation is the means of identification and authentication, then it is important that patches and updates to the device are handled via a configuration management process such that the patches and updates are done securely and do not disrupt identification and authentication to other devices.

Assessment Objective

device identification and authentication are handled based on attestation by [Assignement: configuration management process].

Assessment Method

Examine

Identification and authentication policy system security plan procedures addressing device identification and authentication procedures addressing device configuration management system design documentation system configuration settings and associated documentation configuration management records change control records system audit records other relevant documents or records
