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.
ℹ️ Check
Go to Administration-Miscellaneous >> Manage Log Targets, Event Subscription Tab and check for acceptable configuration in the name and category fields. Go to the Main tab and check for the desired values in the protocol field.
If no Log Targets are configured, this is a finding.
✔️ Fix
Use the CLI copy command. Syntax: copy -f sourceURL destinationURL
-f is an optional switch that forces an unconditional copy. Example: xi52(config)# copy audit:audit-log sftp://test@xx.xx.x.xxx/LOGS/x/Week1.log.
Or, go to Administration-Miscellaneous >> Manage Log Targets, Event Subscription Tab, provide a name, press Add, choose Category “audit”.
Go to Main tab, choose protocol (NFS, SMTP, SNMP, File, etc.) and configure.
