SSMC must allocate audit record storage capacity to store at least one weeks' worth of audit records, when audit records are not immediately sent to a central audit record storage facility.

Description
In order to ensure operating systems have a sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, operating systems need to be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. The task of allocating audit record storage capacity is usually performed during initial installation of the operating system.

Check Text (C-255250r958752_chk)

Verify SSMC allocates audit record storage capacity to store at least one weeks' worth of audit records, when audit records are not immediately sent to remote logging server by doing the following: 1. Log on to SSMC appliance as ssmcadmin. Press "X" to escape to general bash shell. 2. Execute the following command: $ sudo /ssmc/bin/config_security.sh -o remote_syslog_appliance -a status | grep ssmc.rsyslog.queue.maxdiskspace ssmc.rsyslog.queue.maxdiskspace=6 If the command output does not read "ssmc.rsyslog.queue.maxdiskspace=6", this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-58807r869899_fix)

Configure SSMC to allocate audit record storage capacity to store at least one week's worth of audit records. Perform the following to do so: 1. Configure smtp parameters in /ssmc/conf/security_config.properties like below (use vi editor) - ssmc.rsyslog.server.host=<rsyslog_server> ssmc.rsyslog.server.port=<rsyslog_port> ssmc.rsyslog.server.protocol=tcp ssmc.rsyslog.server.tls-enabled=1 ssmc.rsyslog.cert.caroot=<ca_root_cert_pem> ssmc.rsyslog.cert.clientcert=<ssmc_client_cert_pem> ssmc.rsyslog.cert.clientkey=<ssmc_client_key_pem> ssmc.rsyslog.server.authMode=<x509/name | x509/certvalid> ssmc.rsyslog.server.permittedPeers=<cn_of_rsyslog_server> ssmc.rsyslog.server.device=<ens160|ens192|eth0|eth1> ssmc.rsyslog.queue.maxdiskspace=6 ssmc.rsyslog.smtp.alert=true ssmc.rsyslog.smtp.server=<server_ip> ssmc.rsyslog.smtp.port=25 ssmc.rsyslog.smtp.recipient=["id1@domain","id2@domain"] ssmc.rsyslog.smtp.notify-interval=300 ssmc.rsyslog.smtp.mailFrom=id@domain 2. Execute the following command to commit configuration and activate the service: $ sudo /ssmc/bin/config_security.sh -o remote_syslog_appliance -a set -f
