Description
Audit processing failures include, for example, software/hardware errors, failures in the audit capturing mechanisms, and audit storage capacity being reached or exceeded. Without proper notification vital audit records may be lost.
ℹ️ Check
Ask the system administrator (SA) for documented routines and procures for notification in the event of audit failure. If there are no routines or procedures or they are not documented and filed with the ISSO, this is a finding.
✔️ Fix
Develop a procedure for notification in the event of audit failure.
