Secure Sensitive Data SSD Properties 19 • Restricted-The device restricts its passphrase from being exported into a configuration file. Restricted mode protects the encrypted sensitive data in a configuration file from devices that do not have the passphrase. This mode should be used when a user does not want to expose the passphrase in a configuration file. After a device is reset to the factory default, its local passphrase is reset to the default passphrase. As a result, the device will be not able to decrypt any sensitive data encrypted based on a user-defined passphrase entered from a management session (GUI/CLI), or in any configuration file with restricted mode, including the files created by the device itself before it is reset to factory default. This remains until the device is manually reconfigured with the user-defined passphrase, or learns the user-defined passphrase from a configuration file. Configuration File Integrity Control A user can protect a configuration file from being tampered or modified by creating the configuration file with Configuration File Integrity Control. It is recommended that Configuration File Integrity Control be enabled when a device uses a user-defined passphrase with Unrestricted Configuration File Passprhase Control. ! CAUTION Any modification made to a configuration file that is integrity protected is considered tampering. A device determines whether the integrity of a configuration file is protected by examining the File Integrity Control command in the file's SSD Control block. If a file is integrity protected but a device finds the integrity of the file is not intact, the device rejects the file. Otherwise, the file is accepted for further processing. A device checks for the integrity of a text-based configuration file when the file is downloaded or copied to the Startup Configuration file. Read Mode Each session has a Read mode. This determines how sensitive data is displayed. The Read mode can be either Plaintext, in which case sensitive data is displayed as regular text, or Encrypted, in which sensitive data is displayed in its encrypted form.

Restricted

—The device restricts its passphrase from being exported into a

configuration file. Restricted mode protects the encrypted sensitive data in

a configuration file from devices that do not have the passphrase. This

mode should be used when a user does not want to expose the passphrase

in a configuration file.

After a device is reset to the factory default, its local passphrase is reset to the

default passphrase. As a result, the device will be not able to decrypt any

sensitive data encrypted based on a user-defined passphrase entered from a

management session (GUI/CLI), or in any configuration file with restricted mode,

including the files created by the device itself before it is reset to factory default.

This remains until the device is manually reconfigured with the user-defined

passphrase, or learns the user-defined passphrase from a configuration file.

Configuration File Integrity Control

A user can protect a configuration file from being tampered or modified by

creating the configuration file with Configuration File Integrity Control. It is

recommended that Configuration File Integrity Control be enabled when a device

uses a user-defined passphrase with Unrestricted Configuration File Passprhase

Control.

CAUTION

Any modification made to a configuration file that is integrity protected is

considered tampering.

A device determines whether the integrity of a configuration file is protected by

examining the File Integrity Control command in the file's SSD Control block. If a

file is integrity protected but a device finds the integrity of the file is not intact, the

device rejects the file. Otherwise, the file is accepted for further processing.

A device checks for the integrity of a text-based configuration file when the file is

downloaded or copied to the Startup Configuration file.

Read Mode

Each session has a Read mode. This determines how sensitive data is displayed.

The Read mode can be either Plaintext, in which case sensitive data is displayed

as regular text, or Encrypted, in which sensitive data is displayed in its encrypted

form.
