Description
Logging must be utilized in order to track system activity, assist in diagnosing system issues, and provide evidence needed for forensic investigations post security incident. Remote access by administrators requires that the admin activity be logged. Application servers provide a web and command line-based remote management capability for managing the application server. Application servers must ensure that all actions related to administrative functionality such as application server configuration are logged.

Who does this work

12 NICE work roles and 9 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-95923r1_chk)

In the administrative console, navigate to Security >> Security auditing >> Event type Filters. Verify the following events and outcomes are enabled in the "Events and Outcomes" box. Also note the name of the filter associated with these events. This name will be referenced in STIG ID WBSP-AS-000110. AUTHN: SUCCESS,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,DENIED,REDIRECT AUTHZ: SUCCESS,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,DENIED,REDIRECT AUTHN_TERMINATE: SUCCESS,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,DENIED,REDIRECT REPOSITORY_SAVE: SUCCESS,INFO,WARNING,ERROR,DENIED,REDIRECT If these audit filters are not configured in "Events and Outcomes", this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-87987r1_fix)

In the administrative console, navigate to Security >> Security auditing >> Event type Filters. Click the "New" button to create a new filter; give it a unique name. Select SECURITY_AUTHN, SECURITY_AUTHZ, SECURITY_AUTHN_TERMINATE, and ADMIN_REPOSITORY_SAVE from "Selectable events". Add them to the "Enabled events" box by clicking on the right arrow. Select INFO, ERROR, SUCCESS, DENIED, REDIRECT, and WARNING from the "Selectable event outcomes" box. Click the right arrow to fill in "Enabled events outcomes" box. Click "OK". Restart the DMGR and all the JVMs.
