+## Logs and auditing
+
+- [ ] Audit logs, if enabled, are protected from general access.
+- [ ] The `/logs` API is disabled (you are running kube-apiserver with
+  `--enable-logs-handler=false`).
+
+  Kubernetes includes a `/logs` API endpoint, enabled by default,
+  that lets users request the contents of the API server's `/var/log` directory over HTTP. Accessing
+  that endpoint requires authentication.
+
+Allowing broad access to Kubernetes logs can make security information
+available to a potential attacker.
+
+As a good practice, set up a separate means to collect and aggregate
+control plane logs, and do not use the `/logs` API endpoint.
+Alternatively, if you run your control plane with the `/logs` API endpoint
+and limit the content of `/var/log` (within the host or container where the API server is running) to
+Kubernetes API server logs only.
