Ensure /var/log/audit Located On Separate Partition
Low Severity
Audit logs are stored in the
/var/log/audit
directory. Ensure that
/var/log/audit
has its own partition or logical volume at installation time, or migrate it using LVM. Make absolutely certain that it is large enough to store all audit logs that will be created by the auditing daemon.
