Using the Audit Center

Use the Audit Center to search actions, access decisions, and evidence of Infinite Data use.

When to use this

• Use it in internal or external audits.
• Use it to investigate who changed access, a user, a group, or a service account.
• Use it to understand an access denial or a sensitive action.

Before you start

• Have an auditing role.
• Define the investigation's period.
• Have a user, group, table, or approximate action to filter by.

Step by step

1. Open Audit Center.
2. Choose the period to analyze.
3. Use the filters by person, group, outcome, or action type.
4. Open the relevant record.
5. Read who took the action, when it happened, and what the outcome was.
6. Use the export when you need to share evidence formally.

What happens next

• You will have a searchable trail to support the investigation.
• The records help explain grants, changes, and denied access.
• Exported evidence should be treated as sensitive information.

Common errors

• Too wide a period: the filters get slow and hard to analyze.
• Investigating with no context: start from a known person, table, or action.
• Sharing an export without control: evidence can reveal access patterns.

Good practice

• Start with a short period and widen it if needed.
• Write down the investigation's hypothesis before filtering.
• Store evidence according to your organization's policy.
