Fix Recommendation

Edit the /etc/audit/auditd.conf file and add or update the "name_format" option to one of "hostname", "fqd", or "numeric":

name_format = hostname

The audit daemon must be restarted for changes to take effect.

Check Contents

Verify the TOSS audit Daemon is configured to label all off-loaded audit logs, with the following command:

$ sudo grep "name_format" /etc/audit/auditd.conf

name_format = hostname

If the "name_format" option is not "hostname", "fqd", or "numeric", or the line is commented out, this is a finding.
