DE.AE-02.292
Does your organization conduct regular manual reviews of log events for systems that cannot be adequately monitored through automated means?
Explanation
Some technologies or systems may generate logs that are difficult to parse or interpret automatically, requiring human review to identify anomalies or security incidents. Examples include specialized equipment, legacy systems, or applications with unique logging formats that automated SIEM tools cannot effectively process. Evidence of compliance could include documented log review procedures, schedules showing when manual reviews occur, review findings/reports, or entries in a security operations tracking system showing completed manual log reviews with timestamps, reviewer names, and any findings.
Implementation Example
Regularly conduct manual reviews of log events for technologies that cannot be sufficiently monitored through automation
