Event logging

Event logs are enabled by default for all requests sent to the Safeguard Policy Servers. The default location of the event log file is /var/opt/quest/qpm4u/pmevents.db.

Keystroke (I/O) logging

Once your 30-day trial license has expired, One Identity requests that you obtain a Keystroke Logging license to remain in compliance. See Safeguard licensing for details.

You can enable keystroke logging using the log_input and log_output default parameters.

Enabling log_input and log_output enables keystroke logging.

For example, to enable keystroke logging for all requests, specify:

Defaults log_input, log_output

To specify keystroke logging of output just for the root user, specify:

Defaults:root log_output

You can also override default settings by using the LOG_INPUT, LOG_OUTPUT, NOLOG_INPUT, NOLOG_OUTPUT tags in a user specification entry. For example, to suppress keystroke logging for the ls command, enter:

ALL ALL=(ALL) NOLOG_OUTPUT:/bin/ls

The location of the keystroke log file is determined by the iolog_dir and iolog_file default specifications.

The defaults are:

Defaults iolog_dir = "/var/opt/quest/qpm4u/iolog"
Defaults iolog_file = "%{user}/%{runas_user}/%{command}_%Y%m%d_%H%M_XXXXXX"

See the Sudoers man page for an explanation of the supported percent (%) escape sequences.

The trailing “XXXXXX” characters at the end of iolog_file are required; without them, no I/O log will be generated. These X’s are replaced with a unique combination of digits and letters, similar to the mktemp() function.

Audit server logging

Administrators can stream event logs and keystroke (IO) logs from a client to a sudo log audit server (or compatible server) that implements the sudo logsrv protocol. This feature is disabled by default. Enable the recording service through configuring the policy server with pmsrvconfig or by editing pm.settings.

The stored keystroke (IO) logs can be rotated, trimmed, and compressed to manage storage space.

A syslog output of streamed keystroke (IO) logs can be used to send the data to a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tool.

pmmasterd sends I/O logs to the audit server when a command is run via pmrun. I/O logs are sent in real-time. A setting in pm.settings determines whether I/O logs are stored locally too.

Configuration options

You can configure the audit server in pm.settings or interactive mode The pm.settings file sincludes settings for the CA bundle, client certificate, and client key files as well as other settings.

Configuration with pm.settings

One or more audit servers can be specified in the pm.settings file along with the associated port (which defaults to port 30344).

When pmmasterd receives an event from the client, it relays the event to sudo_logsrvd. Events that are supported include: Accept, Reject, and Alert. Logging to the audit server is in addition to local logging. A setting in the pm.settings file specifies whether an unreachable audit server is considered a fatal error or not.

See PM settings variables for more information about modifying the following configuration settings:

  • auditsrvCAbundle

  • auditsrvCert

  • auditsrvEnabled

  • auditsrvEnforced

  • auditsrvHosts

  • auditsrvKeepalive

  • auditsrvLocaliologs

  • auditsrvLogdir

  • auditsrvPkey

  • auditsrvPSpaceMB

  • auditsrvTimeout

  • auditsrvTLS

  • auditsrvTLSCheckpeer

  • auditsrvTLSVerify

Configuration with pmsrvconfig

You can also use the interactive mode of pmsrvconfig to perform most configuration.

Example for interactive mode

In this example, you can see the how interactive mode works.

$ pmsrvconfig -i

Using pmsrvconfig

You can use the pmauditsrv and options for the following:

  • Verifies that the configured audit servers are accessible and configured properly and exchanges a "hello" message with the server.
  • If the audit server is not accessible, stores the events and keystroke (IO) logs temporarily offline and sent to the audit server when it is available.

The connection from pmmasterd to sudo_logsrvd uses TLS to secure data transmission. If none of the audit servers are reachable, event logs and keystroke I/O logs are queued locally on the policy server and sent to the audit server once it is available. Offline logs are encrypted until they are transferred to the log server.

For more information, see pmauditsrv.
