Assessment Title
Rule Text
OL 9 audit system must protect auditing rules from unauthorized change.
Description
Discussion Text
Unauthorized disclosure of audit records can reveal system and configuration data to attackers, thus compromising its confidentiality.
Audit information includes all information (e.g., audit records, audit settings, audit reports) needed to successfully audit OL 9 system activity.
In immutable mode, unauthorized users cannot execute changes to the audit system to potentially hide malicious activity and then put the audit rules back. A system reboot would be noticeable, and a system administrator could then investigate the unauthorized changes.
