Password-Based Authentication |
Shared |
n/a |
The information system, for password-based authentication:
(a) Enforces minimum password complexity of [Assignment: organization-defined requirements for case sensitivity, number of characters, mix of upper-case letters, lower-case letters, numbers, and special characters, including minimum requirements for each type];
(b) Enforces at least the following number of changed characters when new passwords are created: [Assignment: organization-defined number];
(c) Stores and transmits only encrypted representations of passwords;
(d) Enforces password minimum and maximum lifetime restrictions of [Assignment: organization- defined numbers for lifetime minimum, lifetime maximum];
(e) Prohibits password reuse for [Assignment: organization-defined number] generations; and
(f) Allows the use of a temporary password for system logons with an immediate change to a permanent password.
Supplemental Guidance: This control enhancement applies to single-factor authentication of individuals using passwords as individual or group authenticators, and in a similar manner, when passwords are part of multifactor authenticators. This control enhancement does not apply when passwords are used to unlock hardware authenticators (e.g., Personal Identity Verification cards). The implementation of such password mechanisms may not meet all of the requirements in the enhancement. Encrypted representations of passwords include, for example, encrypted versions of passwords and one-way cryptographic hashes of passwords. The number of changed characters refers to the number of changes required with respect to the total number of positions in the current password. Password lifetime restrictions do not apply to temporary passwords. Related control: IA-6. |

Authenticator Management (IA-5) |

n/a |
The agency must manage information system authenticators by:
a. Verifying, as part of the initial authenticator distribution, the identity of the individual, group, role, or device receiving the authenticator
b. Establishing initial authenticator content for authenticators defined by the agency
c. Ensuring that authenticators have sufficient strength of mechanism for their intended use
d. Establishing and implementing administrative procedures for initial authenticator distribution, for lost/compromised or damaged authenticators, and for revoking authenticators
e. Changing default content of authenticators prior to information system installation
f. Establishing minimum and maximum lifetime restrictions and reuse conditions for authenticators
g. Changing/refreshing authenticators
h. Protecting authenticator content from unauthorized disclosure and modification
i. Requiring individuals to take, and having devices implement, specific security safeguards to protect authenticators
j. Changing authenticators for group/role accounts when membership to those accounts changes
The information system must, for password-based authentication:
a. Enforce minimum password complexity of:
1. Eight characters
2. At least one numeric and at least one special character
3. A mixture of at least one uppercase and at least one lowercase letter
4. Storing and transmitting only encrypted representations of passwords
b. Enforce password minimum lifetime restriction of one day
c. Enforce non-privileged account passwords to be changed at least every 90 days
d. Enforce privileged account passwords to be changed at least every 60 days
e. Prohibit password reuse for 24 generations
f. Allow the use of a temporary password for system logon requiring an immediate change to a permanent password
g. Password-protect system initialization (boot) settings |
