SRG-OS-000121 CCI-000804 The operating system must uniquely identify
and must authenticate non-organizational users (or processes acting on
behalf of non-organizational users). Non-organizational users include
all operating system users other than organizational users which include
employees or individuals the organization deems to have equivalent
status of employees (e.g., contractors, guest researchers, individuals
from allied nations). Non-organizational users shall be uniquely
identified and authenticated for all accesses other than those accesses
explicitly identified and documented by the organization when related to
the use of anonymous access.
Could we make an argument that this requirement is met by uniquely
identifying ALL users -- organizational or non-organizational -- by
assigning them UIDs?
IIRC, this requirement is frequently interpreted as "blue badgers staff
are organizational users, green badgers are non-organizational users.
both get unique identifiers." Through this interpretation could we map
to met_inherently?
