How to Use Audit Logs in Cloud Document Backup Server - AnySecura Manual
This guide will help you understand how the AnySecura Cloud Document Backup Server's audit logs provide a clear record of administrator activity. You'll learn to view and search these logs to track specific actions, users, and times.
Building on this visibility, you can then configure the auditor blacklist and whitelist settings to precisely control which administrators are permitted to access the server, enhancing your overall security posture.
The WEB Audit Client primarily records logs of administrator actions on the Cloud Document Backup Server, making it easy to track what operations administrators have performed. Audit administrators with "Cloud Document Backup Server" permissions can log in to the server to view audit logs.
