Fix Recommendation

For any log folder that returns an incorrect permission value, run the following command:

/usr/bin/sudo chmod 700 [audit log folder]

Check Contents

To check the permissions of the audit log folder, run the following command:

/usr/bin/sudo ls -lde $(/usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/grep '^dir' /etc/security/audit_control | awk -F: '{print $2}')

The results should show the permissions (first column) to be "700" or less permissive.

if they do not, this is a finding.
