Contents of PCI DSS reports

To help you comply with the regulations of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) can generate reports on the compliance status of SPS. Note that this is not a fully-featured compliance report: it is a tool to enhance and complement your compliance report by providing information available in SPS. The report corresponds with the document Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard, Requirements and Security Assessment Procedures, Version 3.0, published by the PCI Security Standards Council.

For details on creating PCI DSS reports, see Creating PCI DSS reports. The following table details the information included in the SPS PCI DSS reports, and the relevant PCI compliance requirement.

Table 31: Contents of PCI DSS reports
PCI DSS Requirement Compliance details
Requirement 1.1.6

Documentation and business justification for use of all services, protocols, and ports allowed, including documentation of security features implemented for those protocols considered to be insecure. Examples of insecure services, protocols, or ports include but are not limited to FTP, Telnet, POP3, IMAP, and SNMP v1 and v2.

The report lists the insecure connection policies configured in SPS, including SNMP server and agent settings, and the list of connection policies that permit unencrypted HTTP and Telnet. This list does not include any insecure connections that can be used to access SPS itself.
Requirement 2.1

Always change vendor-supplied defaults and remove or disable unnecessary default accounts before installing a system on the network. This applies to ALL default passwords, including but not limited to those used by operating systems, software that provides security services, application and system accounts, point-of-sale (POS) terminals, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)community strings, etc.).

SPS can be accessed as "root" via the local management console, or - if explicitly enabled - remotely using a Secure Shell (SSH v2) connection. The report lists the local web user accounts that can access SPS. For details on configuring these accounts, see Managing One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) users locally.
Requirement 2.2.2

Enable only necessary services, protocols, daemons, etc., as required for the function of the system.

The report includes the list of services running on SPS.
Requirement 2.2.3

Implement additional security features for any required services, protocols, or daemons that are considered to be insecure, for example, use secured technologies such as SSH, S-FTP, SSL, or IPSec VPN to protect insecure services such as NetBIOS, file-sharing, Telnet, FTP, etc.

The report lists the connection policies enabling unencrypted HTTP and Telnet access, and any such session that was active when the report was generated.
Requirement 2.3

Encrypt all non-console administrative access using strong cryptography. Use technologies such as SSH, VPN, or SSL/TLS for web-based management and other non-console administrative access.

Use HTTPS to connect to SPS. HTTP connections are forbidden.
Requirement 3.5.2

Store secret and private keys used to encrypt/decrypt cardholder data in one (or more) of the following forms at all times:

  • Encrypted with a key-encrypting key that is at least as strong as the dataencrypting key, and that is stored separately from the data-encrypting key

  • Within a secure cryptographic device (such as a host security module (HSM) or PTS-approved point-of-interaction device)

  • As at least two full-length key components or key shares, in accordance with an industry-accepted method

Note: It is not required that public keys be stored in one of these forms.

Audit trails are encrypted with AES128-GCM (audit trails recorded with SPS 5 F3 and earlier are encrypted with AES128-CBC). The master key is encrypted with the key you provided.
Requirement 5.1.2

For systems considered to be not commonly affected by malicious software, perform periodic evaluations to identify and evaluate evolving malware threats in order to confirm whether such systems continue to not require anti-virus software.

SPS is an appliance running minimal services and using a hardened operating system. One Identity, the vendor of SPS, continuously monitors vulnerabilities and CVEs that might affect the components of SPS, and publishes security updates and announcements as needed. Using an up-to-date SPS version should keep the risk of SPS being affected by malicious software at a minimum level.
Requirement 6.2

Ensure that all system components and software are protected from known vulnerabilities by installing applicable vendor-supplied security patches. Install critical security patches within one month of release.

The report includes the firmware version running on SPS. You can check which is the latest version at the Downloads page.
Requirement 8.1.8

If a session has been idle for more than 15 minutes, require the user to reauthenticate to re-activate the terminal or session.

The report includes the timeout value to the SPS web interface (10 minutes by default). To change this value, see Web interface timeout.
Requirement 8.2.1

Using strong cryptography, render all authentication credentials (such as passwords/phrases) unreadable during transmission and storage on all system components.

The report lists where SPS stores passwords, and the hash used to secure them.
Requirement 8.2.4

Change user passwords/passphrases at least every 90 days.

The report lists the password expiry settings of local web users of SPS, and also the last time the password of each user was changed. For details on configuring these accounts, see Managing One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) users locally. For details on configuring password expiry for these accounts, see Setting password policies for local users.
Requirement 8.2.5

Do not allow an individual to submit a new password/phrase that is the same as any of the last four passwords/phrases he or she has used.

The report includes the password history settings of local web users of SPS. For details on configuring password history for these accounts, see Setting password policies for local users.
Requirement 10.5.3

Promptly back up audit trail files to a centralized log server or media that is difficult to alter.

The report lists the addresses of the logservers where SPS forwards its log messages. For details on forwarding log messages, see Configuring system logging.
Requirement 10.5.4

Write logs for external-facing technologies onto a secure, centralized, internal log server or media device.

The report lists the security settings of the communication between SPS and the logservers where SPS forwards its log messages. For details on forwarding log messages, see Configuring system logging.
Requirement 10.7

Retain audit trail history for at least one year, with a minimum of three months immediately available for analysis.

The retention time for local logs of SPS is seven days. To retain them longer, forward them to a remote logserver.

The One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) RPC API

NOTE:

The RPC API is deprecated as of One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) 5 F7 and will be removed in an upcoming feature release. One Identity recommends using the REST API instead.

Version 3 F3 and later of One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions can be accessed using a Remote-Procedure Call Application Programming Interface (RPC API).

The SPS RPC API allows you to access, query, and manage SPS from remote applications. You can access the API using the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) protocol over HTTPS, meaning that you can use any programming language that has access to a SOAP client to integrate SPS to your environment. You can download simple, proof-of-concept clients for Python and other languages from the SPS web interface.

Accessing SPS with the RPC API offers several advantages:

  • Integration into custom applications and environments

  • Flexible, dynamic search queries and management

Requirements for using the RPC API

To access One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) using the RPC API, the following requirements must be met:

  • Accessing the appliance via the RPC API must be enabled on the web interface. For details, see Enabling RPC API access to One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS).

  • The appliance can be accessed using the SOAP protocol over authenticated HTTPS connections. The WSDL describing the available services is available at https://<ip-address-of-SPS>/rpc.php/<techversion>?wsdl. For details on the client libraries tested with SPS see RPC client requirements.

  • The user account used to access SPS via RPC must have read and write/perform rights for the Access RPC API privilege. This is required for every type of RPC access, even for read-only operations. Members of the api group automatically have this privilege. For details on managing user privileges, see Modifying group privileges.

Caution:

Each SPS release provides a separate API with a new API version number. You are recommended to use the SPS version 6.0.14 LTS with the corresponding API version. Earlier versions are not supported

RPC client requirements

The client application used to access One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) must meet the following criteria:

  • Support SOAP version 1.1 or later.

  • Support WSDL version 1.1.

  • Properly handle complex object types.

  • Include a JSON decoder for interpreting the results of search operations.

The following client libraries have been tested with SPS.

Table 32: SOAP libraries tested with SPS
Client name Programming language Status Comments
Apache Axis 1 Java Working
Built-in .NET library .NET Working

SPS does not support the Expect HTTP Header feature, and must be disabled, for example, using System.Net.ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = false;

Scio Python Partially working Does not handle complex object types, so it cannot perform search queries.
SOAP::Lite Perl Working
  • Simple types can be used with the following format: $service->$method(@params)

  • Complex types work only with the following format: $service->call($method, @params)

  • Calls using the $service->call() format seem to work after doing at least one $service->$method(@params) call, for example, a login.
