Description
AirWatch MDM Server auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. The ability to transfer audit logs often is necessary to quickly isolate them, protect their integrity, and analyze their contents.

Ensure the audit logs can be transferred from the AirWatch MDM Server to a storage location other than the AirWatch MDM Server itself. The systems administrator of the device may demonstrate this capability using an audit management application or other means. Audit records will be logged on the device for various actions, especially those related to sensitive or potentially suspicious activities. The specific events to log and the information recorded for each will be a function of policy. If audit logs cannot be transferred on request or on a periodic schedule, this is a finding.
