AIX7-00-003204 - The AIX operating system must be configured to use a valid server_ca.pem file.

Information

To assure accountability and prevent unauthenticated access, privileged and non-privileged users must utilize multifactor authentication to prevent potential misuse and compromise of the system.
Multifactor authentication uses two or more factors to achieve authentication.

Factors include:
1. Something you know (e.g., password/PIN);
2. Something you have (e.g., cryptographic identification device, token); and
3. Something you are (e.g., biometric).

The DoD CAC with DoD-approved PKI is an example of multifactor authentication.

Solution

Configure the system to use a valid "server_ca.pem" file.
