Auditing

Auditing logs maintain records of the operations performed in a CA IdentityMinder environment. You can use the data in audit logs to monitor system activity.

CA IdentityMinder audits events. An event is an operation that is generated by a CA IdentityMinder task. A task can generate multiple events. For example, the CreateUser task may generate the CreateUserEvent and the AddToGroupEvent events.

By default, CA IdentityMinder exports all event information to the audit database. To control the type and amount of event information that CA IdentityMinder records, you can do the following tasks:

• Enable auditing for CA IdentityMinder admin tasks.
• Enable auditing for some or all of the CA IdentityMinder events generated by admin tasks.
• Record event information at specific states, for example, when an event completes or is canceled.
• Log information about attributes involved in an event. For example, you can log attributes that change during a ModifyUserEvent.
• Set the audit level for events and attributes.
