The macOS system must be configured to audit all deletions of object attributes.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>The audit system must be configured to record enforcement actions of attempts to delete file attributes (fd). ***Enforcement actions are the methods or mechanisms used to prevent unauthorized changes to configuration settings. One common and effective enforcement action method is using access restrictions (i.e., denying modifications to a file by applying file permissions). This configuration ensures that audit lists include events in which enforcement actions prevent attempts to delete a file. Without auditing the enforcement of access restrictions, it is difficult to identify attempted attacks, as there is no audit trail available for forensic investigation.
