Auditing must be utilized in order to track system activity, assist in diagnosing system issues and provide evidence needed for forensic investigations post security incident. Remote access by administrators requires that the admin activity be audited. Application servers provide a web and command line based remote management capability for managing the application server. Application servers must ensure that all actions related to administrative functionality such as application server configuration are logged. |
