Description
Protection of log data includes assuring log data is not accidentally lost or deleted. Backing up audit records to a different system or onto separate media than the system being audited on an organizationally defined frequency helps to assure in the event of a catastrophic system failure, the audit records will be retained. This helps to ensure a compromise of the information system being audited does not also result in a compromise of the audit records. This requirement can be met by the operating system continuously sending records to a centralized logging server.

Check Text (C-216233r958574_chk)

This check applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone that you a currently securing. # zonename If the command output is "global" this check applies. The operator must back up audit records at least every 7 days. If the operator is unable to provide a documented procedure or the documented procedure is not being followed, then this is a finding.
