Title

Audit records must be generated when categorized information (e.g., classification levels/security levels) is modified. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

Changes in categorized information must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized access to protected data could go undetected. For detailed information on categorizing information, refer to FIPS Publication 199, Standards for Security Categorization of Federal Information and Information Systems, and FIPS Publication 200, Minimum Security Requirements for Federal Information and Information Systems.

Check Content

Review the system documentation to determine whether it is required to track categorized information, such as classification or sensitivity level. If it is not, this is not applicable. Execute the following SQL the "enterprisedb" operating system user: > psql edb -c "SHOW edb_audit_statement" If the result is not "all" or if the current setting for this requirement has not been noted and approved by the organization in the system documentation, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Execute the following SQL as the "enterprisedb" operating system user: > psql edb -c "ALTER SYSTEM SET edb_audit_statement = 'all'" > psql edb -c "SELECT pg_reload_conf()" or Update the system documentation to note the organizationally approved setting and corresponding justification of the setting for this requirement.
