Check Text (C-281113r1184746_chk)

Verify RHEL 10 notifies the SA and ISSO (at a minimum) when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of the repository maximum audit record storage capacity with the following command: $ sudo grep -w space_left_action /etc/audit/auditd.conf space_left_action = email If the value of the "space_left_action" is not set to "email", or if the line is commented out, ask the SA to indicate how the system is providing real-time alerts to the SA and ISSO. If there is no evidence that real-time alerts are configured on the system, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-85579r1166290_fix)

Configure RHEL 10 to initiate an action to notify the SA and ISSO (at a minimum) when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of the repository maximum audit record storage capacity by adding/modifying the following line in the "/etc/audit/auditd.conf" file. space_left_action = email Restart the audit daemon with the following command for the changes to take effect: $ sudo service auditd restart
