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. Although this may be part of the operating system function, for the enterprise events management system, this is most often a function managed through the application since it is a critical function and requires the use of a large amount of external storage.
Note: This is not applicable (NA) if an external application or operating system manages this function.
Examine the configuration.
Verify the system is configured to off-load interconnected systems in real time and off-load standalone systems weekly, at a minimum.
If the Central Log Server is not configured to off-load interconnected systems in real time and off-load standalone systems weekly, at a minimum, this is a finding.
