Discussion

A comprehensive account management process that includes automation helps to ensure the accounts designated as requiring attention are consistently and promptly addressed. If an attacker compromises an account, the entire MobileIron Core v10 server infrastructure is at risk. Providing automated support functions for the management of accounts will ensure only active accounts will be granted access with the proper authorization levels. These objectives are best achieved by configuring the MobileIron Core v10 server to leverage an enterprise authentication mechanism (e.g., Microsoft Active Directory Kerberos). SFR ID: FIA

On the MDM console, do the following:
1. Logon to the MobileIron Core Server administrator portal as a user with the "security configuration administrator" role using a web browser.
2. Select "Services" on the web page.
3. Select "LDAP" on the web page.
4. Click the "edit" icon on an existing LDAP configuration to be tested.
5. Select "Test" on the LDAP server configuration dialog.
6. Enter a valid LDAP user ID.
7. Select "Submit".
8. Verify the LDAP query is successful and shows user attributes in a dialog box.

If the MDM server does not leverage the MDM platform user accounts and groups for the MDM server user identification and authentication, this is a finding.
