SRG-APP-000120-DB-000061
Group -
The audit information produced by PostgreSQL must be protected from unauthorized deletion.
If audit data were to become compromised, then competent forensic analysis and discovery of the true source of potentially malicious system activity is impossible to achieve. To ensure the veracit...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000374-DB-000322
Group -
PostgreSQL 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 PostgreSQL must include date and time. Tim...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000267-DB-000163
Group -
PostgreSQL must reveal detailed error messages only to the ISSO, ISSM, SA and DBA.
If PostgreSQL provides too much information in error logs and administrative messages to the screen, this could lead to compromise. The structure and content of error messages need to be carefully ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000090-DB-000065
Group -
PostgreSQL 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-000360-DB-000320
Group -
PostgreSQL must provide an immediate real-time alert to appropriate support staff of all audit log failures.
It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without a real-time alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impe...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000442-DB-000379
Group -
PostgreSQL must maintain the confidentiality and integrity of information during reception.
Information can be either unintentionally or maliciously disclosed or modified during reception, including, for example, during aggregation, at protocol transformation points, and during packing/un...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000133-DB-000200
Group -
Database objects (including but not limited to tables, indexes, storage, trigger procedures, functions, links to software external to PostgreSQL, etc.) must be owned by database/DBMS principals authorized for ownership.
Within the database, object ownership implies full privileges to the owned object, including the privilege to assign access to the owned objects to other subjects. Database functions and procedures...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000133-DB-000198
Group -
The PostgreSQL software installation account must be restricted to authorized users.
When dealing with change control issues, it should be noted any changes to the hardware, software, and/or firmware components of the information system and/or application can have significant effec...Rule High Severity -
SRG-APP-000133-DB-000199
Group -
Database software, including PostgreSQL configuration files, must be stored in dedicated directories separate from the host OS and other applications.
When dealing with change control issues, it should be noted, any changes to the hardware, software, and/or firmware components of the information system and/or application can potentially have sign...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000101-DB-000044
Group -
PostgreSQL must include additional, more detailed, organization-defined information in the audit records for audit events identified by type, location, or subject.
Information system auditing capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Reconstruction of harmful events or forensic analysis is not possible if audit records do not contain enough infor...Rule Medium Severity

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.
