The Sentry must generate audit records containing information to establish the identity of any individual or process associated with the event.

Overview

Description
Without information that establishes the identity of the subjects (i.e., users or processes acting on behalf of users) associated with the events, security personnel cannot determine responsibility for the potentially harmful event. Associating information about where the event occurred within the network provides a means of investigating an attack, recognizing resource utilization or capacity thresholds, or identifying an improperly configured network element. This requirement does not apply to audit logs generated on behalf of the device itself (management).

Verify the Sentry produces audit records containing information to establish the outcome of the events. 1. Log in to MobileIron Sentry. 2. Go to Settings >> Syslog. 3. Verify a syslog server is configured. 4. Click on the syslog server(s) and in the "Modify Syslog" pop-up dialog, under the "Facility Type", verify the checkbox for "Audit" is selected. If the syslog server is not configured or "Audit" is not selected under "Modify Syslog", this is a finding. For more information, go to the "MobileIron Sentry 9.8.0 Guide for Core" and refer to the main section "Standalone Sentry Settings", which includes a subsection detailing the log representation format in "Audit log representation and format". The audit logs contain additional information on the type of events that occurred. Also included is date and timestamp, the source of the event, the location of the event, and the result of the action whether a success/failure.
