As people become more security-aware and implement PCI/HIPAA/FISMA and other
regulatory regimes (which are why I'm here) they will be asking for more
auditing capability, especially in the area of console/tty logging where Linux
has historically been weak. Writing out passwords to logfiles is simply not an
option. We are currently looking at Xceedium for auditing/logging our bastion
hosts but would really prefer to avoid that route if auditd or some other Linux
component could handle that for us.
