CCI-001577

Defines the system components from which audit records are to be compiled into the system-wide audit trail.

Implementation Guidance

Determine if audit records from [AU-12(01)_ODP[01]; system components from which audit records are to be compiled into a system-wide (logical or physical) audit trail are defined] are compiled into a system-wide (logical or physical) audit trail that is time-correlated to within [AU-12(01)_ODP[02]; level of tolerance for the relationship between timestamps of individual records in the audit trail is defined].

Validation Procedures

Examine: [SELECT FROM: Audit and accountability policy; system security plan; privacy plan; procedures addressing audit record generation; system design documentation; system configuration settings and associated documentation; system-wide audit trail (logical or physical); system audit records; other relevant documents or records]. Interview: [SELECT FROM: Organizational personnel with audit record generation responsibilities; organizational personnel with information security and privacy responsibilities; system/network administrators; system developers]. Test: [SELECT FROM: Mechanisms implementing audit record generation capability].
