The rsyslog software is recommended in environments where journald does not meet operation requirements.
The security enhancements of rsyslog such as connection-oriented (i.e. TCP) transmission of logs, the option to log to database formats, and the encryption of log data en route to a central logging server) justify installing and configuring the package.
Run the following command to verify rsyslog is installed:
dpkg-query -s rsyslog &>/dev/null && echo "rsyslog is installed"
rsyslog is installed
Run the following command to install rsyslog:
apt install rsyslog
rsyslog is not installed by default on Ubuntu 18.04.
