Description |
---|
Information system logging capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Log record content that may be necessary to satisfy the requirement of this control includes, but is not limited to, time stamps, source and destination IP addresses, user/process identifiers, event descriptions, application-specific events, success/fail indications, filenames involved, and access control or flow control rules invoked. Offloading is a common process in information systems with limited log storage capacity. Centralized management of log records provides for efficiency in maintenance and management of records, as well as the backup and archiving of those records. Application servers and their related components are required to offload log records onto a different system or media than the system being logged. |

By default, a vmware-services-sso-services.conf rsyslog configuration file includes the service logs when syslog is configured on vCenter, but it must be verified.
