Audit Data

To audit a CA Identity Manager environment, configure CA Identity Manager to log audit data. Audit data provides a historical record of operations that occur in a CA Identity Manager environment. Some examples of audit data include the following points:

• System activity for a specified period of a time.
• User login and logout events while accessing a particular environment.
• The tasks that a specific user performs
• A list of objects that were modified during a specific period of a time.
• The user assigned roles
• The operations which are performed for a particular user account.

Audit data is generated for CA Identity Manager events. An event is an operation that is generated by a CA Identity Manager task. For example, the Create User task may include an AssignAccessRoleEvent event.

Note: For more information about events, see the Administration Guide.
