Vuln ID: V-62939 Class: Unclass

Without auditing the enforcement of access restrictions against changes to the device configuration, it will be difficult to identify attempted attacks, and an audit trail will not be available for forensic investigation for after-the-fact actions.

Enforcement actions are the methods or mechanisms used to prevent unauthorized changes to configuration settings. Enforcement action methods might be as simple as denying access to a file based on the application of file permissions (access restriction). Audit items might consist of lists of actions blocked by access restrictions or changes identified after the fact.

For RiOS, all configuration changes authorized or unauthorized are logged in the system logs. Log entries include the user that initiated the configuration change for accountability.

Verify that RiOS is configured to audit the enforcement actions used to restrict access associated with changes to the device.

For detailed information, see Verifying log events are generated when accounts are created.
