General Purpose Operating System SRG: SRG-OS-000473-GPOS-00218 (in versions v3 r1 through v1 r6)

Title

The operating system must generate audit records when concurrent logons to the same account occur from different sources. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

Without generating audit records that are 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. Audit records can be generated from various components within the information system (e.g., module or policy filter).

Check Content

Verify the operating system generates audit records when concurrent logons to the same account occur from different sources. If it does not, this is a finding.

Fix Text
