Description
It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without a real-time alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impending failure of the audit capability and system operation may be adversely affected. 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).

ℹ️ Check
Determine if the network device generates an immediate alert of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts. This requirement may be verified by configuration review or validated test results. If an immediate alert of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts is not generated, this is a finding.

✔️ Fix
Configure the network device to generate an immediate real-time alert of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts.
