Title
The ISSO must review audit trails periodically based on system documentation recommendations or immediately upon system security events. (Cat II impact)
Discussion
Without access control the data is not secure. It can be compromised, misused, or changed by unauthorized access at any time.
Check Content
Interview the application representative and ask for the system documentation that states how often audit logs are reviewed. Also, determine when the audit logs were last reviewed. If the application representative cannot provide system documentation identifying how often the auditing logs are reviewed, or has not audited within the last time period stated in the system documentation, this is a finding.
Fix Text
Establish a scheduled process for reviewing logs. Maintain a log or records of dates and times audit logs are reviewed.
