CAT II

All audit records must use UTC or GMT time stamps.

From: Container Platform Security Requirements Guide (V2R4)

Description

<VulnDiscussion>The container platform and its components must generate audit records using either Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) time stamps or local time that offset from UTC. All the components must use the same standard so that the events can be tied together to understand what took place within the overall container platform. Time stamps generated by the container platform and its components must include date and time.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>

Check Procedure
