The application server must synchronize internal application server clocks to an authoritative time source when the time difference is greater than the organization-defined time period.
Description
Discussion Text
Determining the correct time a particular application event occurred on a system is critical when conducting forensic analysis and investigating system events.
Synchronization of internal application server clocks is needed to correctly correlate the timing of events that occur across multiple systems. To meet this requirement, the organization will define an authoritative time source and have each system synchronize when the time difference is greater than a defined time period. The industry standard for the threshold is 1ms.
