Discussion

Centralized cryptographic policies simplify applying secure ciphers across an operating system and the applications that run on that operating system. Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of using encryption to protect data. Satisfies: SRG-OS-000396-GPOS-00176, SRG-OS-000393-GPOS-00173, SRG-OS-000394-GPOS-00174

Check Content

Verify the OL 9 crypto-policies package is installed with the following command:

$ dnf list --installed crypto-policies
Installed Packages
crypto-policies.noarch                           20240202-1.git283706d.el9                            @ol9_baseos_latest

If the crypto-policies package is not installed, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Install the crypto-policies package (if not already installed) with the following command:

$ sudo dnf install -y crypto-policies
