TOSS 5 must generate audit records for all account creations, modifications, disabling, and termination events that affect /var/log/tallylog.

Without generating audit records 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.

Satisfies: SRG-OS-000392-GPOS-00172, SRG-OS-000477-GPOS-00222

Verify TOSS 5 generates audit records for all account creations, modifications, disabling, and termination events that affect "/var/log/tallylog" using the following command:

$ sudo auditctl -l | grep /var/log/tallylog

-w /var/log/tallylog -p wa -k logins

If the command does not return a line, or the line is commented out, this is a finding.

Configure TOSS 5 to generate audit records for all account creations, modifications, disabling, and termination events that affect "/var/log/tallylog".

Add or update the following file system rule to "/etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules":

-w /var/log/tallylog -p wa -k logins

Restart the audit daemon for the changes to take effect.
