Azure SQL Database must provide a warning to appropriate support staff when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of maximum audit record storage capacity.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>Auditing for Azure SQL Database tracks database events and writes them to an audit log in the Azure storage account, Log Analytics workspace, or Event Hubs. Under normal conditions, the audit space allocated by an Azure Storage account can grow quite large. Since a requirement exists to halt processing upon audit failure, a service outage would result.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
