Description
Without sufficient granularity of time stamps, it is not possible to adequately determine the chronological order of records. Time stamps generated by the operating system include date and time. Granularity of time measurements refers to the degree of synchronization between information system clocks and reference clocks.

Details

Check Text (C-203713r958786_chk)

Verify the operating system records time stamps for audit records that meet a minimum granularity of one second for a minimum degree of precision. If it does not, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-3838r375147_fix)

Configure the operating system to record time stamps for audit records that meet a minimum granularity of one second for a minimum degree of precision.
