| Description |
|---|
| Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Offloading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity. |
| ℹ️ Check |
|---|
| Verify the audit system offloads audit records if SLEM 5 storage volume becomes full. Check that the records are properly offloaded to a remote server with the following command: > sudo grep -i "disk_full_action" /etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf disk_full_action = syslog If "disk_full_action" is not set to "syslog", "single", or "halt" or the line is commented out, this is a finding. |
| ✔️ Fix |
|---|
| Configure SLEM 5 to take the appropriate action if the audit storage is full. Add or modify the following line in the "/etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf" file: disk_full_action = syslog |
