The UEM server must back up audit records at least every seven days onto a log management server. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

Protection of log data includes ensuring log data is not accidentally lost or deleted. Backing up audit records to a different system or onto separate media than the system being audited on an organizationally defined frequency helps ensure, in the event of a catastrophic system failure, the audit records will be retained. This helps to ensure a compromise of the information system being audited does not also result in a compromise of the audit records. This requirement only applies to applications that have a native backup capability for audit records. Operating system backup requirements cover applications that do not provide native backup functions. Satisfies:FAU_STG_EXT.1.1, FMT_SMF.1.1(2) Refinement b
