Discussion Text
Requirement: The IAO will ensure that the auditing process records security relevant actions (e.g., the changing of security levels or categories of information).
Security relevant actions such as the following should be recorded to provide an effective security audit process:
- Logons and logouts
- Excessive logon attempts/failures
- Remote system access
- Change in privileges or security attributes
- Change of security levels or categories of information
- Failed attempts to access restricted system privilege levels or data files
- Audit file access (if possible)
- Password changes
- Device configuration changes
The information that each audit record should have is as follows:
- Date and time of the event
- Origin of the request (e.g., terminal ID)
- Unique ID of the user who initiated the event
- Type of event
- Success or failure
- Description of modification to configurations
