Ubuntu 22.04 LTS must generate audit records for the /var/log/wtmp file.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
Without generating audit records 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 information system (e.g., module or policy filter).
