Fix Recommendation

Reauthentication of users may be enforced by using credential cache lifetimes and inactivity timeouts. Set credential cache lifetimes and inactivity timeouts for LDAP, RADIUS, XML, IWA (with Basic credentials), SiteMinder, and COREid authentication methods.

1. Log on to the Web Management Console.
2. Browse to Configuration >> Authentication.
3. Click each of the above authentication mechanisms and select the "General" tab (e.g., Radius General or LDAP General).
4. Set the "Credential Refresh" time to the organization-defined time period.
5. Click "Apply".

Reauthentication of users may be enforced by using credential cache lifetimes and inactivity timeouts. Verify credential cache lifetimes and inactivity timeouts for LDAP, RADIUS, XML, IWA (with Basic credentials), SiteMinder, and COREid authentication methods.

1. Log on to the Web Management Console.
2. Browse to Configuration >> Authentication.
3. Click each of the above authentication mechanisms and select the "General" tab (e.g., Radius General or LDAP General).
4. Verify that the "Credential Refresh" time is set to the organization-defined time period.

If Symantec ProxySG providing user authentication intermediary services does not require users to reauthenticate every 900 seconds when organization-defined circumstances or situations require reauthentication, this is a finding.
