Details
Check Text (C-274078r1120222_chk)
Verify Amazon Linux 2023 encrypts audit records off-loaded onto a different system or media from the system being audited via rsyslog with the following command:
$ sudo grep -i '$ActionSendStreamDriverMode' /etc/rsyslog.conf /etc/rsyslog.d/*.conf
/etc/rsyslog.conf:$ActionSendStreamDriverMode 1
If the value of the "$ActionSendStreamDriverMode" option is not set to "1" or the line is commented out, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-78074r1120221_fix)
Configure Amazon Linux 2023 to encrypt off-loaded audit records via rsyslog by setting the following options in "/etc/rsyslog.conf" or "/etc/rsyslog.d/[customfile].conf":
$ActionSendStreamDriverMode 1
