Discussion

Private key data is used to prove that the entity presenting a public key certificate is the certificate's rightful owner. Compromise of private key data allows an adversary to impersonate the key holder.

Check Content

Verify the Sentry uses encryption services that implement NIST FIPS-validated cryptography to protect the confidentiality of remote access sessions. 

On the MobileIron Sentry CLI console, do the following:
1. SSH to MobileIron Sentry Server from any SSH client.
2. Enter the administrator credentials set when MobileIron Sentry was installed.
3. Enter "enable".
4. When prompted, enter the "enable secret" set when MobileIron Sentry was installed.
5. Enter "show FIPS".
6. Verify "FIPS 140 mode is enabled" is displayed.

If the MobileIron Sentry Server does not report that FIPS mode is "enabled", this is a finding.

Fix Text
