FIPS operations auditing

The Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) audit trail tracks specific FIPS events.

These events log Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) status changes into the audit trail:

FIPS mode enabled
FIPS mode disabled

When booting, the sensors report FIPS mode operations using the message
