Description
The list of audited events is the set of events for which audits are to be generated. This set of events is typically a subset of the list of all events for which the system is capable of generating audit records (i.e., auditable events). Organizations will define the organizational personal accountable for selecting auditable events. The operating system must allow the designated personnel to select the items to be audited. Permanent not a finding - Auditing cannot be configured/implemented like a typical UNIX system.
