Discussion Text
If audit information were to become compromised, then forensic analysis and discovery of the true source of potentially malicious system activity is impossible to achieve.
To ensure the veracity of audit information, the operating system must protect audit information from unauthorized deletion. This requirement can be achieved through multiple methods, which will depend upon system architecture and design.
Audit information includes all information (e.g., audit records, audit settings, audit reports) needed to successfully audit information system activity.
