The WebSphere Liberty Server must log remote session and security activity.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

Security auditing must be configured in order to log remote session activity. Security auditing will not be performed unless the audit feature (audit-1.0) has been enabled. The security feature (appSecurity-2.0) must be enabled for the security auditing to capture security transactions. Remote session activity will then be logged, regardless of the user attempting that activity.
