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 network device (e.g., module or policy filter).

Check Content

In the SMS client, ensure the remote system is configured to generate all audit records. 

1. Navigate to Admin >> Server properties >> Syslog. 
2. Verify the configuration enables TCP.
3. Verify Device Audit, Device System, SMS Audit, and SMS System log types are enabled and configured.

If syslog is not configured to use TCP or does not include the four log types, this is a finding.
