Fix Recommendation

If PKI-based user authentication intermediary services are provided, configure Sentry to only accept end entity certificates issued by DoD PKI or DoD-approved PKI CAs for the establishment of protected sessions.

1. In the MobileIron Core Portal, select Services >> Sentry.
2. Click the "Edit" icon for the Standalone Sentry entry.
3. In the "Device Authentication Configuration" section, select an option appropriate for your implementation.
4. Depending on the option selected, follow the instructions in one of the following sections to complete the configuration:
- Group Certificate
Refer to "Configuring authentication using a group certificate" for next steps.
- Identity Certificate
Refer to "Configuring authentication using an identity certificate and Pass Through" for next steps.
OR
Refer to "Configuring authentication using an identity certificate and Kerberos constrained delegation" for next steps.

For more information, in the "Sentry 9.8.0 Guide for Core", refer to the main section "Device and Server Authentication", which contains the subsection "Configuring device and server authentication".

5. From the "Upload Certificate" option, load the DoD and/or DoD-approved CA certificates.

Check Contents

Verify Sentry only accepts end entity certificates issued by DoD PKI or DoD-approved PKI CAs for the establishment of protected sessions.

Verify the MobileIron Core has a device-level password policy enforcing password or biometric and is applied to managed devices. This should be done by default.

Verify the Sentry is configured for certificate-based authentication:

Verify the Sentry is set up to provide user authentication intermediary services:
1. In the MobileIron Core Portal, select Services >> Sentry.
2. Click the "Edit" icon for the Standalone Sentry entry.
3. In the "Device Authentication Configuration" section, select an option appropriate for this implementation.
4. Depending on the option selected, follow the instructions in one of the following sections to complete the configuration:
- Group Certificate
- Identity Certificate
- Identity Certificate with Kerberos constrained delegation
5. Select "View Certificate" and verify DoD and/or DoD-approved CA certificates are presented.

If non-DoD-approved certificates are used, this is a finding.
