IDMS must use the ESM to generate auditable records for resources when DoD-defined auditable events occur.
High Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Audit records provide a tool to help research events within IDMS. IDMS does not produce audit records, but when using external security, records can be produced through the ESM. IDMS relies on the ESM to log organization-defined auditable events. To ensure that all secure actions are logged, those actions must be defined to the IDMS Security Resource Type Table (SRTT) with a type of external security. When IDMS has to perform a given security check, it will defer to the ESM to determine the user's authorization. The auditing functionality of the ESM can be used to track the IDMS security calls. Some organization-defined auditable events are expected to be handled solely by the ESM. This would include requirements such as "successful and unsuccessful attempts to modify or delete privileges, security objects, security levels, or categories of information" as well as "account creation, modification, disablement, or termination." For the audit logging of other organization-defined auditable events, IDMS requires RHDCSRTT security module set up to route requests for these events through the ESM. This will ensure that they are audited appropriately. The following resource types must be defined with SECBY type of EXTERNAL in the RHDCSRTT load module to achieve the appropriate level of audit logging. If there is not a resource type definition with a security type of EXTERNAL for the following resources, this is a finding.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
