Audit and Logging System for Compliance

Problem/Motivation

FedRAMP and HIPAA require comprehensive audit logging that exceeds Drupal's default capabilities. Drupal 11 needs an enhanced logging system that supports detailed event tracking, secure storage, and compliance reporting.

Steps to reproduce

1. Review Drupal 11's default logging
2. Compare to FedRAMP AU controls
3. Note the gaps in detail, retention, and reporting
4. Observe lack of security event classification

Proposed resolution

Create a Recipe component for enhanced audit logging:

• Comprehensive security event capturing
• Configurable retention policies
• Tamper-evident log storage
• External SIEM integration
• Compliance reporting tools

Remaining tasks

1. Define event taxonomy for security logging
2. Implement Recipe-based logging configuration
3. Create retention management tools
4. Build reporting interfaces
5. Develop external integration APIs

User interface changes

• Enhanced log viewer with security filters
• Compliance reporting dashboard
• Log policy management interface

API changes

• Extended logging services
• Event subscribers for security actions
• Report generation APIs

Data model changes

• Enhanced log storage schema
• Policy configuration entities
• Report template storage
