Rules and Groups employed by this XCCDF Profile

  • Records Events that Modify Date and Time Information

    Arbitrary changes to the system time can be used to obfuscate nefarious activities in log files, as well as to confuse network services that are highly dependent upon an accurate system time. All c...
