Rule version WN19-AU-000010 · STIG v3 · 2026-02-12

Discussion

Protection of log data includes assuring the log data is not accidentally lost or deleted. Audit information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration.

Check

Determine if a process to back up log data to a different system or media than the system being audited has been implemented.

If it has not, this is a finding.

Fix

Establish and implement a process for backing up log data to another system or media other than the system being audited.
