Redis Enterprise DBMS must allow only the ISSM (or individuals or roles appointed by the ISSM) to select which auditable events are to be audited.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>Without the capability to restrict which roles and individuals can select which events are audited, unauthorized personnel may be able to prevent or interfere with the auditing of critical events. Suppression of auditing could permit an adversary to evade detection. Misconfigured audits can degrade the system's performance by overwhelming the audit log. Misconfigured audits may also make it more difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident or identify those responsible for one.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>

Remediation - Manual Procedure

Configure the DBMS's settings to allow designated personnel to select which auditable events are audited. This can be done on Redis Enterprise with ACLs and RBAC.

To configure RBAC:
1. Log in to the Redis Control Plane as an admin user.
2. Navigate to the access control tab.
3. Provide the appropriate permissions and privileges as defined by the organization.
