Discussion

Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Off-loading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity. The DBMS may write audit records to database tables, to files in the file system, to other kinds of local repository, or directly to a centralized log management system. Whatever the method used, it must be compatible with off-loading the records to the centralized system.

Review the system documentation to determine how audit records are offloaded.

If the MarkLogic Server instance is not monitored by a third-party audit management tool, this is a finding.

Fix Text
