Note: |
At the time of writing, version 3.49.1 is the most current version, released 02/18/2025. |
| | [16] | Configuration and deployment standards for databases and their host server images are defined and maintained by the Core Systems Engineering organization within VA Enterprise Systems Engineering (ESE) and must be followed and adhered to unless an appropriate waiver is granted. Detailed information can be found at the following location: https://vaww.sde.portal.va.gov/svcs/sma/BCM/SitePages/Home.aspx.
VA has Enterprise License Agreements (ELAs) in place for preferred relational database management system (RDBMS) technologies (Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle DB). Customers should get their licenses through these channels, not via independent, uncoordinated small procurements. Detailed information can be found at the following location: http://vaww.eie.va.gov/TIPO/default.aspx.
Per the Initial Product Review, users must abide by the following constraints:
-
SQLite will require a 3rd party FIPS 140-2 certified solution for any data containing PHI/PII or VA sensitive information.
-
The system user or administrator initiating the SQLite process should have robust authentication credentials that prevent unauthorized or casual access. SQLite is designed to run in “trusted environments”, and the database does not enable authentication or “Secure Mode”.
-
System Owners/Administrators should actively monitor CVE findings for the product and update accordingly.
-
System Owners and Administrators should ensure the product is not configured to work on the root of the C:\ (operating system) drive. Since the product doesn’t include or require an installation package, it is up to the end user to create this folder in a VA defined/approved location.
| | [17] | This technology has received one or more VA security bulletins that provide specific guidance on vulnerability patching and mitigation. It is the responsibility of VA system owners to ensure that the appropriate mitigations are taken to address all known and future discovered vulnerabilities with this product. See the Reference tab for more information on security bulletins related to this product. | | [18] | Users should check with their supervisor, Information System Security Officer (ISSO) or local OIT representative for permission to download and use this software. Downloaded software must always be scanned for viruses prior to installation to prevent adware or malware. Freeware may only be downloaded directly from the primary site that the creator of the software has advertised for public download and user or development community engagement. Users should note, any attempt by the installation process to install any additional, unrelated software is not authorized and the user should take the proper steps to decline those installations. | | [20] | Due to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) identified security vulnerabilities, extra vigilance should be applied to ensure the versions remain properly patched to mitigate known and future vulnerabilities. The local ISSO (Information System Security Officer) can provide assistance in reviewing the NIST vulnerabilities. | | [22] | Veterans Affairs (VA) users must ensure VA sensitive data is properly protected in compliance with all VA regulations. All instances of deployment using this technology should be reviewed by the local ISSO (Information System Security Officer) to ensure compliance with both VA Handbook 6500 and VA Directive 6500. | | [23] | Per the May 5th, 2015 memorandum from the VA Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) FIPS 140-2 FIPS 140-2 Validate Full Disk Encryption (FOE) for Data at Rest in Database Management Systems (DBMS) and in accordance with Federal requirements and VA policy, database management must use Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 or its successor to protect the confidentiality and integrity of VA information at rest at the application level. If FIPS 140-2 encryption at the application level is not technically possible, FIPS 140-2 or 140-3 compliant full disk encryption (FOE) must be implemented on the storage device where the DBMS resides. Appropriate access enforcement and physical security control must also be implemented. All instances of deployment using this technology should be reviewed to ensure compliance with VA Handbook 6500 and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standards. It is the responsibility of the system owner to work with the local CIO (or designee) and Information System Security Officer (ISSO) to ensure that a compliant DBMS technology is selected and that if needed, mitigating controls are in place and documented in a System Security Plan (SSP). By September 22, 2026, all FIPS 140-2 certificate validations will be placed on the Historical List, please refer to FIPS Transition Effort for further guidance and timeline of changes. | | [24] | Configuration and deployment standards for databases and their host server images are defined and maintained by the Core Systems Engineering organization within VA Enterprise Systems Engineering (ESE) and must be followed and adhered to unless an appropriate waiver is granted.

Per the Initial Product Review (IPR), users must abide by the following constraints:
-

-
The system user or administrator initiating the SQLite process should have robust authentication credentials that prevent unauthorized or casual access. SQLite is designed to run in “trusted environments”, and the database does not enable authentication or “Secure Mode”.
-
Ensure that the latest stable version of SQLite is used. Additionally, SQLite must be added to the list of applications for continuous monitoring for published vulnerabilities, updates, and patches. ISSO’s and administrators must monitor the CVE Details and SQLite vulnerabilities websites for any new security vulnerabilities.
-
System Owners and Administrators should ensure the product is not configured to work on the root of the C:\ (operating system) drive. Since the product doesn’t include or require an installation package, it is up to the end user to create this folder in a VA defined/approved location.
| | [25] | The Federal Information Processing standards (FIPS) 140-2 certification status of this technology was not able to be verified. This technology will require a 3rd party FIPS 140-2 or 140-3 certified solution for any data containing PHI/PII or VA sensitive information, where applicable. More information regarding the Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP) can be found on the NIST website. |
