AIX7-00-002032 - AIX must provide the function for assigned ISSOs or designated SAs to change the auditing to be performed on all operating system components, based on all selectable event criteria in near real time.
Information
If authorized individuals do not have the ability to modify auditing parameters in response to a changing threat environment, the organization may not be able to effectively respond, and important forensic information may be lost.This requirement enables organizations to extend or limit auditing as necessary to meet organizational requirements. Auditing that is limited to conserve information system resources may be extended to address certain threat situations. In addition, auditing may be limited to a specific set of events to facilitate audit reduction, analysis, and reporting.
Solution
Create a role "auditadm" that is assigned with security related authorization with the following commend:# mkrole authorizations="aix.security.audit,aix.security.user.audit,aix.security.role.audit" auditadm
