T1213.002 Sharepoint

Adversaries may leverage the SharePoint repository as a source to mine valuable information. SharePoint will often contain useful information for an adversary to learn about the structure and functionality of the internal network and systems. For example, the following is a list of example information that may hold potential value to an adversary and may also be found on SharePoint:

  • Policies, procedures, and standards
  • Physical / logical network diagrams
  • System architecture diagrams
  • Technical system documentation
  • Testing / development credentials (i.e., Unsecured Credentials)
  • Work / project schedules
  • Source code snippets
  • Links to network shares and other internal resources

PR.PS-01.01 Configuration baselines Mitigates T1213.002 Sharepoint
Comments
This diagnostic statement provides for securely configuring production systems. This includes hardening default configurations and making security-focused setting adjustments to reduce the attack surface, enforce best practices, and protect sensitive data thereby mitigating adversary exploitation.

    PR.PS-01.02 Least functionality Mitigates T1213.002 Sharepoint
    Comments
    This diagnostic statement provides for limiting unnecessary software, services, ports, protocols, etc. Ensuring systems only have installed and enabled what is essential for their operation reduces the attack surface and minimizes vulnerabilities, which mitigates a wide range of techniques.

      PR.AA-01.01 Identity and credential management Mitigates T1213.002 Sharepoint
      Comments
      This diagnostic statement protects against Sharepoint through the use of hardened access control policies, secure defaults, password complexity requirements, multifactor authentication requirements, and removal of terminated accounts.
