Audit and Logging

Audit

Cloud Trace Service (CTS) records operations on the cloud resources in your account. You can use the logs generated by CTS to perform security analysis, track resource changes, audit compliance, and locate faults.

After you enable CTS and configure a tracker, CTS can record management and data traces of OBS for auditing.

For details about how to enable and configure CTS, see Enabling CTS.

For details about OBS management and data traces that can be tracked by CTS, see Cloud Trace Service.

Logging

You can enable OBS logging for bucket analysis or audit. After logging is enabled for a bucket, OBS automatically logs access requests for the bucket and writes the generated log files into the specified bucket. With access logs, the bucket owner can deeply analyze the characteristics, types, or trends of requests sent to the bucket.

For the introduction and configuration of OBS logging, see Logging.
