The HYCU virtual appliance must generate audit records when successful/unsuccessful attempts to delete administrator privileges occur.

Rule version HYCU-ND-000240 · STIG v1 · 2026-05-23

Discussion

Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident or identify those responsible for one.

Audit records can be generated from various components within the network device (e.g., module or policy filter).

Check

Check the contents of the "/var/log/audit/audit.log" file.

HYCU also maintains Event (Audit) information in the "HYCU Web UI Events" menu.

Verify the audit log contains records showing successful/unsuccessful attempts to modify or delete administrator privileges.

If the audit log is not configured or does not have required contents, this is a finding.

Fix

Log in to the HYCU VM console and load the STIG audit rules by using the following commands:

1. cp /usr/share/audit/sample-rules/10-base-config.rules /usr/share/audit/sample-rules/30-stig.rules /usr/share/audit/sample-rules/31-privileged.rules /usr/share/audit/sample-rules/99-finalize.rules /etc/audit/rules.d/

2. augenrules --load
