info:
  name: Log Disconnections Flag Not Enabled for PostgreSQL Instances
  author: princechaddha
  severity: medium
  description: |
    Ensure that the "log_disconnections" database flag is enabled for all your Google Cloud PostgreSQL database instances. When this flag is enabled, PostgreSQL database logs the end of each session. The log output provides information similar to the one generated by the "log_connections" flag, plus the duration of the session. The database flag can be changed at the session start, and it cannot be changed during a session.
  impact: |
    Not enabling the "log_disconnections" flag may result in missing critical information about session terminations and their durations, which could be valuable for debugging and auditing.
  remediation: |
    Enable the "log_disconnections" flag for all Google Cloud PostgreSQL database instances by updating the database flag in the configuration settings.
