F5BI-DM-000067 – The BIG-IP appliance must be configured to alert the ISSO and SA (at a minimum) in the event of an audit processing failure – at a minimum in the event of an audit processing failure.

Details

It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without this notification, the security personnel may be unaware of an impending failure of the audit capability, and system operation may be adversely affected.

Audit processing failures include software/hardware errors, failures in the audit capturing mechanisms, and audit storage capacity being reached or exceeded.

Solution

Configure the BIG-IP appliance to alert the ISSO and SA (at a minimum) in the event of an audit processing failure.
