| Description |
|---|
| Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Off-loading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity. Without the configuration of the "au-remote" plugin, the audisp-remote daemon will not off-load the logs from the system being audited. Satisfies: SRG-OS-000342-GPOS-00133, SRG-OS-000479-GPOS-00224 |
