Audit and Logs

Auditing

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 create a tracker, CTS starts to record CSS operations for audit.

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

For details about CSS operations that can be recorded by CTS, see Key Operations Recorded by CTS.

Figure 1 CTS

After CTS is enabled, CTS starts recording CSS operations. The CTS management console stores the operation records generated in the last seven days. For details about how to view operation records for the last seven days on the CTS console, see Querying Real-Time Traces.

Logging

CSS allows you to back up and query logs for locating faults. You can back up cluster logs in OBS buckets and download required log files from OBS for fault analysis and locating. For details about CSS log management, see Managing Logs.
