The SUSE operating system must generate audit records for all uses of the newgrp command.
An XCCDF Rule

At a minimum, the organization must audit the full-text recording of privileged commands. The organization must maintain audit trails in sufficient detail to reconstruct events to determine the cause and impact of compromise.
