The Central Log Server system backups must be retained for a minimum of 5 years for SAMI (Sources and Methods Information) and a minimum of 7 days for non-SAMI on media capable of guaranteeing file integrity for the minimum applicable information retention period.

Description
If backups are not properly processed, protected, and stored on appropriate media, recovery from a system failure or implementation of a contingency plan would not include the data necessary to fully recover in the time required to ensure continued mission support.

Who does this work

6 NICE work roles and 5 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-206459r960948_chk)

Review the SSP, backup media documentation, and system backup configuration. Verify the Central Log Server system is backed up to media capable of guaranteeing file integrity for a minimum of five years. If the Central Log Server does not retain backups for a minimum of five years for SAMI and a minimum of seven days for non-SAMI, this is a finding. If the Central Log Server system backups are not stored on appropriate media capable of guaranteeing file integrity for a minimum of five years for systems retaining SAMI, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-6719r864171_fix)

Configure the Central Log Server to retain backups of system information for a minimum of five years for SAMI and a minimum of seven days for non-SAMI. Select backup media that guarantees file integrity for a minimum of five years for systems retaining SAMI. Document the required retention period in the SSP.
