The HYCU virtual appliance must allocate audit record storage capacity in accordance with organization-defined audit record storage requirements.

To ensure network devices have a sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, they must be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. The task of allocating audit record storage capacity is usually performed during initial device setup if it can be modified.

Log in to the HYCU VM console.

Review the /etc/audit/auditd.conf file and verify that the settings are in accordance with organizational policies.

If it is not configured in accordance with organizational policies, this is a finding.

Check for the value of the "max_log_file_action" option in "/etc/audit/auditd.conf" with the following command: sudo grep max_log_file_action /etc/audit/auditd.conf

If the "max_log_file_action" value is not set to "ROTATION", this is a finding.

Configure the operating system to enforce log rotation and restrict log file size to an organization-defined value by editing "/etc/audit/auditd.conf" files using the following command: sudo vi /etc/audit/auditd.conf

Add or modify the following lines to have the required value for the organization. Refer to the sample below: max_log_file_action = ROTATION max_log_file = 6
