GROUP ID: V-274071RULE ID: SV-274071r1120201

If security personnel are not notified immediately when storage volume reaches 75 percent utilization, they are unable to plan for audit record storage capacity expansion.

Solution

Configure Amazon Linux 2023 to take action when the audit log storage volume reaches 75 percent of the maximum storage capacity.

Edit /etc/audit/auditd.conf and ensure the parameter "space_left = 25" is configured.
