Verify the operating system encrypts audit records off-loaded onto a different system or media from the system being audited. To determine if the transfer is encrypted, use the following command: # grep -i enable_krb5 /etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf enable_krb5 = yes If the value of the "enable_krb5" option is not set to "yes" or the line is commented out, ask the System Administrator to indicate how the audit logs are off-loaded to a different system or media. If there is no evidence that the transfer of the audit logs being off-loaded to another system or media is encrypted, this is a finding. |
