Hello list!

For PCI requirement 10.2.6 (Initialization, stopping, or pausing of the
audit logs) [1], I'm wondering what the best solution would be from your
point of view?

The PCI requirement are detailed further in the spec:
Verify the following are logged:
 - Initialization of audit logs
 - Stopping or pausing of audit logs

Turning the audit logs off (or pausing them) prior to performing illicit
activities is a common practice for malicious users wishing to avoid
detection. Initialization of audit logs could indicate that the log
function was disabled by a user to hide their actions.

The PCI auditor told us, "it's enoght" if the application logs when it's
started and when it's stopped.

Thanks in advance,
