Auditing secrets
On 26 Sept 2023, there will be significant improvements to the Security & Encryption Cloud app. Learn more.
Audit logs show chronological events around secrets in the space, who interacted and made changes to the secrets. You may use the audit logs to run audit reports, review access to secrets, find out any unintended access, detect suspicious activities and provide supporting evidence of your organization's security compliance.
The audit logs page shows event records of all secrets within the space.
Records are kept for 90 days and cannot be deleted. Only the space administrators are able to see audit logs.
Accessing audit logs
- On the left sidebar, click Secret Administrator.
Click on Audit logs tab.
You can't see this tab if you're not a space administrator.- You'll see a table of audit information.
Use the input box at the top to filter by secret name or secret ID.
