Title

Replay-Resistant Authentication

Control

Implement replay-resistant authentication mechanisms for access to privileged and non-privileged accounts.

Discussion

Authentication processes resist replay attacks if it is impractical to successfully authenticate by recording or replaying previous authentication messages. Replay-resistant techniques include protocols that use nonces or challenges, such as time synchronous or challenge-response one-time authenticators.

Assessment objective

replay-resistant authentication mechanisms for access to privileged accounts are implemented.
