OBS Usage Audit

DSC detects OBS buckets based on sensitive data identification rules and monitors identified sensitive data. After abnormal operations of the sensitive data are detected, DSC allows you to view the monitoring result and handle the abnormal events as required.

Prerequisites

  • An abnormal event has been detected and displayed on the page.
  • The OBS audit function has been enabled in the asset center.

    After OBS audit is enabled, you will be charged for reading and writing logs using the logging function of OBS. For details about the fees, see Requests.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region or project.
  3. In the navigation tree on the left, click . Choose Security and Compliance > Data Security Center .
  4. In the navigation tree on the left, choose Data Security Operation > OBS Usage Audit. The OBS Usage Audit page is displayed. For details about the parameters, see Table 1.

    In the upper right corner of the list, select a time range, set the time period, and select an event type and status to query the abnormal behaviors you want to view.

    Event Type

    DSC classifies abnormal events into the following three types:
    • Unauthorized data access
      • Access sensitive files without granted permissions.
      • Download sensitive files.
    • Abnormal data operations
      • Update sensitive files.
      • Append data to sensitive files.
      • Delete sensitive files.
      • Copy sensitive files.
    • Abnormal data management
      • When a bucket is added, the system detects that the bucket is a public read or a public read/write bucket.
      • When a bucket is added, the system detects that the access/ACL access permissions of a private bucket are granted for anonymous users or registered user groups.
      • The policy of a bucket containing sensitive files is changed or deleted.
      • The ACL of a bucket containing sensitive files is changed or deleted.
      • The cross-region replication configuration of a bucket containing sensitive files is modified or deleted.
      • The ACL of a sensitive file is modified or deleted.
