| Description | ||||
| Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Off-loading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity. Satisfies: SRG-OS-000342-GPOS-00133, SRG-OS-000479-GPOS-00224 | ||||

Details
Check Text (C-221770r958754_chk)
Verify the operating system off-loads audit records onto a different system or media from the system being audited.
To determine the remote server that the records are being sent to, use the following command:
# grep -i remote_server /etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf
remote_server = 10.0.21.1
If a remote server is not configured, or the line is commented out, ask the System Administrator to indicate how the audit logs are off-loaded to a different system or media.
If there is no evidence that the audit logs are being off-loaded to another system or media, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-23474r419383_fix)
Configure the operating system to off-load audit records onto a different system or media from the system being audited.
Set the remote server option in "/etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf" with the IP address of the log aggregation server.
