Vulnerability discussion

Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident, or identify those responsible for one. Audit records can be generated from various components within the information system (e.g., module or policy filter).

Review the Trend Deep Security server to ensure audit records are generated for all kernel module load, unload, and restart events and, also for all program initiations. Verify that audit records are off-loaded by configuring the Manager to instruct all managed computers to use Syslog: 1. Go to the Administration >> System Settings >> SIEM tab. 2. In the System Event Notification (from the Manager) area, verify the “Forward System Events to a remote computer (via Syslog)" box is checked. 3. Verify the IP address to the selected host name is entered. 4. Verify UDP port 514 or agency selected port is provided. 5. Verify the appropriate Syslog facility and Common Event Settings If any of these settings are missing from the SIEM configuration, this is a finding.

Configure the Trend Deep Security server to generate audit records for all kernel module load, unload, and restart events and, also for all program initiations. To configure the Manager to instruct all managed computers to use Syslog: 1. Go to the Administration >> System Settings >> SIEM tab. 2. In the “System Event Notification (from the Manager)” area, check the “Forward System Events to a remote computer (via Syslog)” box. 3. Type the hostname or the IP address of the Syslog computer. 4. Enter which UDP port to use (usually 514). 5. Select which Syslog facility to use. 6. Select the "Common Event Format" log format. (The "Basic Syslog" format is listed only for legacy support and should not be used for new integrations).

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
