Here are the list of items that I need to accomplish and I greatly
appreciate any help that you can provide. 1) I need to configure a test box
to meet NISPOM audit requirements. (any examples of /etc/auditd.conf and
/etc/audit.rules would be great) 2) Then test it by acting as a user and
trying to access files such as /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. 3) Then report
that data to prove to auditors that the tool is collecting the events.
I'd like to include a generic NISPOM configuration in the next set of audit
packages. Can anyone share some of their contents? I could take a guess at
it, but would rather have something that has gone through review. I am not
wanting your site sensitive file locations, but generally this:
1) any syscall auditing you turned on
2) any files you needed to audit in /etc that are not site sensitive
3) any files in /var that needed to audit.
I think all other pieces of the audit system are embedded in the appropriate
utilities so audit message generation is automatic. The report tool created
to meet NISPOM is aureport.
Send it to me privately if you do not want your email address public. I would
appreciate the help...and so would other people in the linux-audit community.
Thanks,
