User Auditing Service

The Aviatrix PaaS Auditing Service provides a comprehensive framework to track user activities and security changes within your cloud accounts that are onboarded to Aviatrix PaaS.

By capturing, storing, and providing secure access to audit log data, the service helps you meet regulatory requirements, detect anomalies, and improve your overall security posture.

The auditing service is enabled by default and cannot be disabled. This service is essential for governance and compliance adherence, proactive security monitoring, and gaining operational visibility.

On the Audit page, you can filter the audit data that Aviatrix Platform collects, so you can display a subset of the data. Select a time period and set the conditions filter to view more focused results on the Audit page.

Above the audit table are three icons. One icon allows you to filter the table by using conditions. Another icon opens a list to show and hide columns in the table. The third icon allows you to download the audit report in CSV or XLSX format.
