Description
Auditing and logging are key components of any security architecture. Logging the actions of specific events provides a means to investigate an attack, recognize resource utilization or capacity thresholds, or to simply identify an improperly configured VPN gateway. Thus, it is imperative that the collected log data from the various VPN gateways, as well as the auditing tools, be secured and can only be accessed by authorized personnel. This requirement pertains to securing the VPN log as it is stored locally, on the box temporarily, or while being encapsulated.

Who does this work

7 NICE work roles and 7 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-207201r608988_chk)

Verify the VPN Gateway protects log information from unauthorized read access if all or some of this data is stored locally. If the VPN Gateway does not protect log information from unauthorized read access if all or some of this data is stored locally, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-7461r378225_fix)

Configure the VPN Gateway to protect log information from unauthorized read access if all or some of this data is stored locally.
