AOS must record time stamps for audit records that can be mapped to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Alerts provide organizations with urgent messages. Real-time alerts provide these messages immediately (i.e., the time from event detection to alert occurs in seconds or less).

Verify the AOS configuration with the following command: show clock

If the clock is not set to the appropriate time zone or UTC/GMT, this is a finding.

Configure AOS with the following commands: configure terminal clock timezone <IANA time zone> to set the appropriate timezone write memory
