remote or local access???

We have a system that rebooted over the weekend. There is no sign of
logins anywhere except in /var/log/authlog, which has the entry:

Jul 29 06:54:10 myhost su: SU root on /dev/console

There is no associated "last" entry.

It is our believe that a /dev/console access is just that - physical
access - in which case someone local did something and covered
most, but not all their tracks.

Is there a way a remote access can cause this kind of log entry??

TIA
