The DBN-6300 must back up audit records at least every seven days onto a different system or system component than the system or component being audited.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>Protection of log data includes assuring log data is not accidentally lost or deleted. Regularly backing up audit records to a different system or onto separate media than the system being audited helps to ensure that, in the event of a catastrophic system failure, the audit records will be retained. Backup of audit records helps to ensure that a compromise of the information system being audited does not also result in a compromise of the audit records. With the DBN-6300, audit records are automatically backed up on a real-time basis via syslog when enabled.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
