High Severity
<VulnDiscussion>The ESCON Director Console Event Log is used to record all ESCON Director Changes. Failure to create an ESCON Director Application Console Event log results in the lack of monitoring and accountability of configuration changes. In addition, its use in the execution of a contingency plan could be compromised and security degraded. NOTE: Many newer installations no longer support the ESCON Director Console. For installations not supporting the ESCON Director Console, this check is not applicable.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility>System Administrator</Responsibility><Responsibility>Systems Programmer</Responsibility><IAControls>ECAT-1, ECAT-2</IAControls>
