What are some settings that will impact system functionality that I should test before I deploy the OMB mandated FDCC baseline in an operational environment?
There are a number of settings that will impact system functionality and agencies should test thoroughly before they are deployed in an operational environment. Running the system as a standard user – some applications may not work properly because they require administrative access to the operating system and application directories and registry keys. Minimum 12 characters password and change every 60 days – this may impact system usability and interoperability with some enterprise single sign-on password management systems. Wireless service – the wireless service is disabled and this will prevent the use of Wi-Fi network interfaces that depend on the built-in wireless service. FIPS 140-2 setting – impacts browser interoperability with Web sites that do not support the FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms. This can usually be corrected by changing the Web server configuration to support FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms. Refer to the following knowledge base article. http://support.microsoft.c
