Title

LG Android 6.x must implement the management setting: Install CA certificate. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

Without implementing the desired security configuration settings, the mobile operating system will have known weaknesses that adversaries could exploit to disrupt the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the DoD data accessed on and through the mobile device. SFR ID: FMT_SMF_EXT.1.1 #45

Check Content

This validation procedure is performed on both the MDM Administration Console and the LG for Android device. On the MDM console, do the following: 1. Ask the MDM administrator to display the list of server authentication certificates in the "Certificate Configuration" rule. 2. Verify the CA certificates are present. 3. Verify the policy has been assigned to all groups. On the LG for Android device: 1. Navigate to Settings >> General >> Security (or Fingerprints & security) >> Certificate management >> Trusted credentials. 2. Select the "User" tab. 3a. Verify the presence of the CA certificates under "Personal" for Activation Type COPE#2. 3b. Verify the presence of the CA certificates for Activation Type COPE#1. If on the MDM console the CA certificates are not present in the MDM Console certificate configuration or on the device the CA certificates are not listed under the "User" tab, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Configure the mobile operating system to install CA certificates on the device. On the MDM Console, add the CA certificates to the "Certificate Configuration" rule.
