The firewall must generate traffic log entries containing information to establish the outcome of the events, such as, at a minimum, the success or failure of the application of the firewall rule.

Description
Without information about the outcome of events, security personnel cannot make an accurate assessment as to whether an attack was successful or if changes were made to the security state of the network. Event outcomes can include indicators of event success or failure and event-specific results. They also provide a means to measure the impact of an event and help authorized personnel to determine the appropriate response.

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-206682r604133_chk)

Examine the traffic log configuration on the firewall or view several alert events on the organization's central audit server. Verify the entries sent to the traffic log include sufficient information to ascertain the outcome of the firewall rules. Verify that, at a minimum, the success or failure of the event is evented. If the traffic log entries do not include sufficient information to ascertain the outcome of the application of the firewall rules, this is a finding. If the traffic log entries do not include the success or failure of the application of the firewall rules, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-6939r297826_fix)

Configure the firewall to generate traffic log entries containing information to establish the outcome of the events, such as, at a minimum, the success or failure of the application of the firewall rule.
