Vulnerability Discussion

The ability to generate on-demand reports, including after the audit data has been subjected to audit reduction, greatly facilitates the organization's ability to generate incident reports as needed to better handle larger-scale or more complex security incidents.

Audit reduction is a process that manipulates collected audit information and organizes such information in a summary format that is more meaningful to analysts. The report generation capability provided by the application must support on-demand (i.e., customizable, ad hoc, and as-needed) reports.

This requirement is specific to applications with audit reduction capabilities; however, applications need to support on-demand audit review and analysis.

Check

Review the container platform configuration to determine if the container platform is configured to provide an audit reduction capability that supports on-demand reporting requirements.

If the container platform is not configured to support on-demand reporting requirements, this is a finding.

Fix

Configure the container platform to support on-demand reporting requirements.
