Auditing of user access and fax logs must be enabled when fax from the network is enabled.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

Without auditing the originator and destination of a fax cannot be determined. Prosecuting of an individual who maliciously compromises sensitive data via a fax will be hindered without audits. The SA will ensure auditing of user access and fax logging is enabled if fax from the network is enabled.
