AS24-U1-000210 - The log data and records from the Apache web server must be backed up onto a different system or media.

Information

Protection of log data includes ensuring log data is not accidentally lost or deleted. Backing up log records to an unrelated system or onto separate media than the system the web server is actually running on helps to ensure that, in the event of a catastrophic system failure, the log records will be retained.

NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Document the web server backup procedures.
