Configure the Cassandra Server to generate audit records for at least the DoD minimum set of events.

At the command line execute the following command:

# sed -i 's/^\(\s*\)<root level=".*">\(\s*\)$/\1<root level="ALL">\2/' /usr/lib/vmware-vcops/user/conf/cassandra/logback.xml

Check Contents

Check the Cassandra Server auditing settings to determine whether organization-defined auditable events are being audited by the system.

At the command prompt, execute the following command:

# grep '<root' /usr/lib/vmware-vcops/user/conf/cassandra/logback.xml

If level is not set to "ALL", this is a finding.
