Information

The operating system must be configured to preserve log records from failure events.

GROUP ID: V-270653
RULE ID: SV-270653r1067141

Failure to a known state can address safety or security in accordance with the mission/business needs of the organization. Failure to a known secure state helps prevent a loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability in the event of a failure of the information system or a component of the system.

Preserving operating system state information helps to facilitate operating system restart and return to the operational mode of the organization with least disruption to mission/business processes.

Solution

Install the log service by using the following command:

$ sudo apt-get install rsyslog

Enable and activate the log service by using the following command:

$ sudo systemctl enable rsyslog.service --now
