NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 AU-5: Response to audit logging process failures

Requires defined personnel to be alerted within a defined time period when the audit logging process fails, and requires the organization to take the additional response actions it has defined for that failure.

This control maps to 23 controls across 15 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

Other controls in AU - Audit and Accountability

You are reading one control. How much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 have you already done?

NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 AU-5 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27001:2022 and 163 of 300 NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls already carry evidence.

Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 342 were rejected on the ISO 27001:2022 pair alone.
