The MQ Appliance network device must off-load audit records onto a different system or media than the system being audited.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Using a syslog logging target, the MQ Appliance logs all audit records to the syslog. Logging may be set to the following logging levels in descending order of criticality: debug, info, notice, warn, error, alert, emerg. The default is notice. Off-loading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
