Group -
The EDB Postgres Advanced Server must provide audit record generation capability for DOD-defined auditable events within all EDB Postgres Advanced Server/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 rec...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000090-DB-000065
Group -
The EDB Postgres Advanced Server 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 -
