The EDB Postgres Advanced Server must generate audit records when security objects are deleted.
The removal of security objects from the database/DBMS would seriously degrade a system's information assurance posture. If such an event occurs, it must be logged.Rule Medium Severity -

The EDB Postgres Advanced Server must generate audit records showing starting and ending time for user access to the database(s).
For completeness of forensic analysis, it is necessary to know how long a user's (or other principal's) connection to the DBMS lasts. This can be achieved by recording disconnections, in addition t...Rule Medium Severity -

The EDB Postgres Advanced Server must generate audit records when concurrent logons/connections by the same user from different workstations occur.
For completeness of forensic analysis, it is necessary to track who logs on to the DBMS. Concurrent connections by the same user from multiple workstations may be valid use of the system; or such ...Rule Medium Severity -
