Title

The application must use organization-defined replay-resistant authentication mechanisms for network access to privileged accounts. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

An authentication process resists replay attacks if it is impractical to achieve a successful authentication by recording and replaying a previous authentication message. Techniques used to address this include protocols using nonce's (e.g., numbers generated for a specific one time use) or challenges (e.g., TLS, WS_Security), and time synchronous or challenge-response one-time authenticators. Rationale for non-applicability: Mobile applications that support remote access are not within the scope of this SRG.
