Ensure Security Auditing Is Enabled

ÉlevéeNiveau 1Automatiséemacos

Description

macOS's audit facility, auditd, receives notifications from the kernel when certain system calls, such as open, fork, and exit, are made. These notifications are captured and written to an audit log. Apple has deprecated auditd as of macOS 11.0 Big Sur. In macOS 14.0 Sonoma it is no longer enabled by default and it is suggested to use an application that integrates with the EndpointSecurity API.
