SAS 70 Security Audit Compliance

Hi
I have to propose a network which is in compliance with SAS 70 Audit.
The network is very simple. Internet Link will terminate on my ASA 5505 and from there the wires will go into my 1200 APs.The network consists only of Laptops.I will be using 802.1X authentication and would use encryption.
Also in ASA a IPSec VPN connection to my US office will terminate. Now this network as said would undergo security audit.
So my problem is that I am clueless. Is ACS server required for SAS 70?or will the current setup is OK. IF anyone has done this then please help.
Thanks in advance
Regards
JD

Hi,
Since you are planning to create users using script, it will be a better practice to audit the actions, such as When the User Created, Group Membership changes etc.
Checkout the below steps to enable auditing for AD User Changes,
1. Open GPMC console, click Start --> Administrative Tools --> Group Policy Management.
2. Right click the Default Domain Controllers Policy, and then click Edit.
3. Navigate to Audit Policy node, “Computer Configuration/ Policies/ Windows Settings/ Security Settings/
Local Policies/ Audit Policy”.
4. Now enable the Success auditing for - Audit Account Management and Audit Directory Service Access.
5. Execute the command “GPUPDATE /FORCE” in the Domain Controller to force apply the GPO settings.
For Windows Server 2008 R2 and later versions, additional configuration is required in “Advanced Audit
Policy Configuration” section in Default Domain Controller Policy.
1. Go to the node DS Access (Computer Configuration/Policies/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Advanced
Audit Policy Configuration/Audit Policies/DS Access.)
Enable Success auditing for the following settings
- Audit Directory Service Changes
2. Go to the node Account Management (Computer Configuration/Policies/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Advanced
Audit Policy Configuration/Audit Policies/Account Management.)
Enable Success auditing for the following settings
- Audit User Account Management
After completing the audit settings, configure SACL in Active Directory Users and Computers console for
enabling the geneartion of AD Change events in the eventlog as shown below,
Checkout the below KB article on complete list on Event
ID and Description for AD Changes,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947226/en-us
You can also use
third party auditing solution for generating compliance reports.

Oracle Security Audit Advisory Q2

Hi All,
My boss give me the security audit check, review guidelines from Oracle.
He wants me to validate it with our existing PROD database setup.
Have you done this security check in your PROD databases?
1.
1.1.1 Ensure the following are not installed by default
1.1.1.1 Spatial
1.1.1.2 OLAP
1.1.1.3 Data Mining
1.1.1.4 Real Application Testing
1.1.2 Do not install sample schemas
How do I know if they were installed by defualt? And how do I deinstall them?
2.
1.1 Disallow remote OS authentication
Does this mean I can allow local OS authentication?
By the way, we have an issue of hiding the passwords in batch job scripts.
And I suggested to the security officer to use the OS authentication ( I mean local)
But he disapproved it because for the reason mentioned item above.
So, can I reason with him that he misunderstood it?
Thanks,
zxy

Thanks Justin Sir, your ideas has been so sensible.
The docs Im referring to is > ORACLE-BASE - OS Authentication
I am sure the IT security officer is just referring the guidelines as he is not good in oracle as he is a network guy.
One thing he insist is, the batch operator who handles running of batch scripts every night must not have access to the database? or he/she has no database login?
What he means is in OS Aix he has only "oper01" login id, but it does not have a counterpart of "oper01" in the database. So he will run batch scripts the has connection
to "appadmin" database user, and the the password for this db userid is hidden or encrypted. Of which I suggest to be identified externally.
Can this setup be done for security compliance? I mean can an operator run a batch job that is connecting to the database of which he does not know what userid&password is,
and can not be seen in the shell script even if he opens it? I know if it is a compiled perl It is possible. But using perl for batch need deep expertise.
Can you share me how do u secure your prod database from operators that handles the batch jobs?
Thanks a lot

How to schedule a batch job to generate security audit log (SM20)

May be this is a repeat question for this forum. Apologize, if it is. Is there a way to schedule a batch job to generate security audit log (SM20) automatically and possibly send a message to SAP Inbox or generate a spool request? Release is 4.6C.
Regards
Nirmal

> May be this is a repeat question for this forum. Apologize, if it is.
You don't need to apologize. You only need to do a very simple search...
> Total Questions: 18 (16 unresolved)
Perhaps 16 of those 18 questions you have not followed up on could have been spared as well?
Please do the needfull.

Hi Jerry,
Windows logs logon type 3 in most cases when you access a computer from elsewhere on the network. This is usually
related to share folders, printers, IIS and so on.
Would you please let me confirm whether you had installed some third-party applications?
Meanwhile, please refer to Robert’s suggestion in the following similar thread and check if can help you.

If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Hope this helps.

"logon time" between USR41 and security audit log

Dear colleagues,
I got a following question from customer for security audit reason.
> 'Logon date' and 'Logon time' values stored in table USR41 are exactly same as
> logon history of Security Audit Log(Tr-cd:SM20)?
Table:USR41 saves 'logon date' and 'logon time' when user logs on to SAP System from SAP GUI.
And the Security Audit Log(Tr-cd:SM20) can save user's logon history;
at the time when user logged on, the security audit log is recorded .
I tried to check SAP GUI logon program:SAPMSYST several ways, however,
I could not check it because the program is protected even for read access.
I want to know about specification of "logon time" between USR41 and security audit log,
or about how to look into the program:SAPMSYST and debug it.
Thank you.
Best Regards.

Hi,
If you configure Security Audit you can achieve your goals...
1-Audit the employees how access the screens, tables, data...etc
Answer : Option 1 & 3
2-Audit all changes by all users to the data
Answer : Option 1 & 3
3-Keep the data up to one month
Answer: No such settings, but you can define maximum log size.
4-Log retention period can be defined.
Answer: No !.. but you can define maximum log size.
SM19/SM20 Options:
1-Dialog logon
You can check how many users logged in and at what time
2-RFC login/call
Same as above you can check RFC logins
3-Transaction/report start
You can see which report or transaction are executed and at what time
(It will help you to analyise unauthorized data change. Transactions/report can give you an idea, what data has been changed. So you can see who changed the data)
4-User master change
(You can see user master changes log with this option)
5-System/Other events
(System error can be logged using this option)
Hope, it clear the things...
Regards.

Getting the name of the program or the FM called from security audit log

Dears,
Is there a way to get the name of the ABAP program called through transaction SE38, or the FM called through transaction SE37, from the security audit log ?
What is available is only : RSABAPPROGRAM for transaction SE38, and RSFUNCTIONBUILDER for transaction SE37
Thanks.
Reda

I had always assumed this log to be in the SUBMIT statement, but never used it.
If I remember correctly this is recorded it the runtime submit, so it should be there.
Perhaps it is only in selected reports? I will check in my system.
Please compare with sm20n and run the report from sa38. The submits are different in sa38 etc compared to se38.
The FM will only be recorded it it has a destination extention in the source system which is mostly remote. Local fm calls are not recorded for sure.
Cheers,
Julius

Solaris 10 with Trusted Extensions - Security Audit Events [short] Descript

{color:#000000}I know that the security audit events and classes in Solaris 10 have changed when viewing these files: audit_class, audit_event, and audit_control with that of the same files for TSOL8. In order to perform an accurate and acceptable review of the audit events, I need to find either a file or document that provides a short description for each of the audit events within each audit class. Can anyone point me in the right direction or a URL? I have tried to search through the Sun docs and have not yielded any results. {color}

been there, done that
The problem is a function of your network definitions. The non-global zones do not have an IP address to match for your global zonename. The error message results from the system established default of the DISPLAY variable failing (DISPLAY=globalzonename:0.0).
To confirm this, login to the global zone as root and "zlogin -S" to the non-global zone. Once there, the command "netstat -r" should show the IP address of the global zone instead of the expected global zonename. (combine this with a look at your output for "ifconfig -a" within the same non-global zones) Another command you should fail with will be the "getent hosts galaxy". Anyway, if you manually set your DISPLAY variable to the "IP Address" of the globalzonename and execute a "dtterm" ... it should work fine.
If it does not violate a security policy, I suggest you add the IP address of the global zone to either the /etc/inet/hosts or /etc/inet/ipnodes file within each non-global zone.

In which table can I find security audit settings from SM19?

Hello everybody,
I'd like to give certain users access to the security audit settings that we defined in SM19. They are supposed to be able to read them but not change anything. I've experimented a bit with SM19 authorizations and figured out that a read-only access to SM19 is possible if I deactivate S_C_FUNCT. The problem is that the aforementioned users already have complete access to S_C_FUNCT and are supposed to keep it. The also have AUDD and AUDA in S_ADMI_FCD. Ergo: If I just add the S_TCODE for SM19 they'd be able to change security audit settings and I don't want to allow that.
Does anybody know the table where SM19 saves its settings? Maybe I could grant read-only access to that table via SM30 or SE16...
Looking forward to your answers!
Kind regards
Mario

Hi Mario,
Restrict access for table RSAUPROF , It should do!!!

CCMS and Security Audit log

I have seen a huge number of companies who do not use SM19/SM20 or RZ20. It is not configured. example I worked for 3 clients(user base 14000, 16000,1000) and none of them have this configuration.
Do you know why is it so if it is not configured at your place.
Thanks
Edited by: Pankaj Jain on Sep 26, 2009 7:02 PM

Performance impact is dependent on the Hardware sizing and the daily monitoring activities together with the back up schedule by the BASIS team.
My experience is: I have seen maximum of clients using this for logging activities of ALL users in the system. In other few cases, it is restricted to Super and Special users.
Please go through the document: [Security Audit Log|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/2088d9d4-e011-2a10-bba9-90548dbc2d6a&overridelayout=true] (it's a bit Old)

Security Audit Log SM19 and Log Management external tool

Hi all,
we are connecting a SAP ECC system with a third part product for log management.
Our SAP system is composed by many application servers.
We have connected the external tool with the SAP central system.
The external product gathers data from SAP Security Audit Log (SM19/SM20).
The problem is that we see, in the external tool, only the data available in the central system.
The mandatory parameters have been activated and the system has been restarted.
The strategy of SAP Security Audit Log is to create many audit log file for each application server. Probably, only when SM20 is started, all audit files from all application servers are read and collected.
In our scenario, we do not use SM20 since we want read the collected data in the external tool.
Is there a job to be scheduled (or something else) in order to have all Security Audit Log available (from all application servers) in the central instance ?
Thanks in advance.
Andrea Cavalleri

I am always amazed at these questions...
For one, SAP provides an example report ( RSAU_READ_AUDITLOG_EXTERNAL ) to use BAPIs for alerts from the audit log yet 3rd party solutions seem to be alergic to using APIs for some reason.
However, mainly I do not understand why people don't use the CCMS (tcode RZ20) security templates and monitor the log centrally from SolMan. You can do a million cool things in SolMan... but no...
Cheers,
Julius

Weu0092d like to get Custom reports. The base of reports is Security Audit Log

Wed like to get Custom reports. The base of reports is Security Audit Log files. This is files for SM20.
What does the file structure look like? What is field of it?
Thanks!

Hello Marina
The data written to the security audit log correspond to the DDIC structures RSLGENTR (up to release 4.6) and RSAUENTR2 (in newer releases). DDIC structures can be viewed using TA SE11 (data type).
As I can see you have already opened a thread regarding this. Please don't duplicate the threads, as this only widespreads the information.
