The system vulnerability assessment tool, host-based intrusion detection tool, and file integrity tool must notify the SA and the IAO of a security breach or a suspected security breach.

Overview

Finding ID	Version	Rule ID	IA Controls	Severity
V-12028	GEN006560	SV-37747r2_rule	ECAT-1 ECAT-2	Medium

Description
Timely notifications of potential security compromises minimize the potential damage. Minimally, the system must log these events, and the SA and the ISSO will receive the notifications during the daily system log review. If feasible, active alerting (such as e-mail or paging) should be employed consistent with the site's established operations management systems and procedures.
