The Audit Configuration profile is required.

This check applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone currently being secured.

# zonename

If the command output is "global", this check applies.

Determine the OS version currently being secured.
# uname -v

For Solaris 11, 11.1, 11.2, and 11.3:
# pfexec auditconfig -getflags | grep active | cut -f2 -d=

If "ps" audit flag is not included in the output, this is a finding.

For Solaris 11.4 or newer:
# pfexec auditconfig -t -getflags | cut -f2 -d=

If "cusa,fm,fd,-fa,-ps,-ex" audit flags are not included in the output, this is a finding.

Determine if auditing policy is set to collect command line arguments.

# pfexec auditconfig -getpolicy | grep active | grep argv

If the active audit policies line does not appear, this is a finding.
