SV-27266r2_rule Auditing must be implemented.

Vulnerability discussion

Without auditing, individual system accesses cannot be tracked and malicious activity cannot be detected and traced back to an individual account.

Check content

Determine the type of zone that you are currently securing. # zonename If the output of "zonename" is "global", then auditing must be enabled. Determine if auditing is enabled. # ps -ef |grep auditd If the auditd process is not found, this is a finding. If the output of "zonename" is not "global", then the "perzone" policy must be determined. # auditconfig –getpolicy audit policies = cnt,perzone If "perzone" is not listed then this requirement is not applicable. If "perzone" is listed then determine if auditing is enabled. # ps -ef |grep auditd If the auditd process is not found, this is a finding.

Fix text

Use /etc/security/bsmconv to enable auditing on the system.

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.
