3.2.1
Set up the kubernetes integration.
Kubernetes can audit the details of requests made to the API server. The --audit-policy-file
flag must be set for this logging to be enabled.
Logging is an important detective control for all systems, to detect potential unauthorised access.
Run the following command on one of the cluster master nodes:
ps -ef | grep kube-apiserver
Verify that the --audit-policy-file
is set. Review the contents of the file specified and ensure that it contains a valid audit policy.
Create an audit policy file for your cluster.
Audit logs will be created on the master nodes, which will consume disk space. Care should be taken to avoid generating too large volumes of log information as this could impact the available of the cluster nodes.
Unless the --audit-policy-file
flag is specified, no auditing will be carried out.
Version 7.6.2 Activate audit logging - Ensure that local logging has been enabled on all systems and networking devices.
