Assessment Title

Rule Text

RHEL 10 must allocate audit record storage capacity to store at least one week's worth of audit records.

Description

Discussion Text

To ensure RHEL 10 systems have a sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, RHEL 10 must be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. The task of allocating audit record storage capacity is usually performed during initial installation of RHEL 10. Satisfies: SRG-OS-000341-GPOS-00132, SRG-OS-000342-GPOS-00133

Remediation

Configure RHEL 10 to allocate enough storage capacity for at least one week of audit records when audit records are not immediately sent to a central audit record storage facility.

If audit records are stored on a partition made specifically for audit records, resize the partition with sufficient space to contain one week of audit records.

If audit records are not stored on a partition made specifically for audit records, a new partition with sufficient space must be created.
