GROUP ID: V-281113RULE ID: SV-281113r1184746

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 RHEL 10 to initiate an action to notify the SA and ISSO (at a minimum) when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of the repository maximum audit record storage capacity by adding/modifying the following line in the "/etc/audit/auditd.conf" file.

space_left_action = email

Restart the audit daemon with the following command for the changes to take effect:

$ sudo service auditd restart
