tc Server CaSa must produce log records containing sufficient information to establish what type of events occurred.


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity

Description
After a security incident has occurred, investigators will often review log files to determine what happened. Understanding what type of event occurred is critical for investigation of a suspicious event. Like all servers, tc Server will typically process “GET” and “POST” requests clients. These will help investigators understand what happened.
