    Group
  • Execution of software modules (to include stored procedures, functions, and triggers) with elevated privileges must be restricted to necessary cases only.

    In certain situations, to provide required functionality, a DBMS needs to execute internal logic (stored procedures, functions, triggers, etc.) and/or external code modules with elevated privileges...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000089-DB-000064

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must provide audit record generation capability for DoD-defined auditable events within all DBMS/database components.

    Without the capability to generate audit records, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident or identify those responsible for one. Audit re...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000090-DB-000065

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must allow only the ISSM (or individuals or roles appointed by the ISSM) to select which auditable events are to be audited.

    Without the capability to restrict which roles and individuals can select which events are audited, unauthorized personnel may be able to prevent or interfere with the auditing of critical events. ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000508-DB-000358

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must generate audit records for all direct access to the database(s).

    In this context, direct access is any query, command, or call to the DBMS that comes from any source other than the application(s) that it supports. Examples would be the command line or a database...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000357-DB-000316

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must allocate audit record storage capacity in accordance with organization-defined audit record storage requirements.

    To ensure sufficient storage capacity for the audit logs, the DBMS must be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. Although another requirement (SRG-APP-000515-DB-000318) mandates that audi...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000515-DB-000318

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must offload audit data to a separate log management facility; this must be continuous and in near real time for systems with a network connection to the storage facility, and weekly or more often for stand-alone systems.

    Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Offloading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity. Th...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000359-DB-000319

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must provide a warning to appropriate support staff when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of maximum audit record storage capacity.

    Organizations are required to use a central log management system, so under normal conditions, the audit space allocated to the DBMS on its own server will not be an issue. However, space will stil...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000360-DB-000320

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must provide an immediate real-time alert to appropriate support staff of all audit log failures.

    Redis Enterprise does not send immediate real-time alerts to support staff in the event of audit log failures; however, the host RHEL server can be configured to send such alerts using scripts or o...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000109-DB-000049

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must by default shut down upon audit failure, to include the unavailability of space for more audit log records; or must be configurable to shut down upon audit failure.

    Redis Enterprise can be configured to generate alerts for certain other key events, but not in the instance of an audit failure. The DBMS would depend on the base Linux OS to detect and shut down i...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000109-DB-000321

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must be configurable to overwrite audit log records, oldest first (First-In-First-Out [FIFO]), in the event of unavailability of space for more audit log records.

    It is critical that when the DBMS is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required, it take action to mitigate the failure. Audit processing failures include software/hardware errors; failur...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000374-DB-000322

    Group
  • Redis Enterprise DBMS must record time stamps, in audit records and application data, that can be mapped to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC, formerly GMT).

    If time stamps are not consistently applied and there is no common time reference, it is difficult to perform forensic analysis. Time stamps generated by the DBMS must include date and time. Time ...

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
