If using an Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment (AIDE), verify that the configuration contains the "ACL" option for all monitored files and directories. Procedure: Check for the default location /etc/aide/aide.conf or: # find / -name aide.conf # egrep "[+]?acl" If the option is not present. This is a finding. If using a different file integrity tool, check the configuration per tool documentation. |
