Note: - A user can be added to one or more groups based on access requirements - Break Glass Access can be configured for a user who is both a local and SSO user

Access Audit

The Access Audits page for Break Glass Access is designed to provide visibility into all actions and events related to break glass access within an organization. It serves as a centralized log where administrators can monitor activities such as updates to access groups or changes performed by users. This level of monitoring helps in quickly identifying any unauthorized or unexpected access, ensuring that only permitted actions are carried out.

  • The CLEAR FILTERS, REFRESH, and EXPORT options on the Access Audits page help users manage and analyze audit logs efficiently. CLEAR FILTERS resets all filters to default, showing the full list of logs. REFRESH updates the logs to display the most recent events, ensuring data is current. EXPORT allows users to download logs in .csv for reporting, compliance, or further analysis. These features streamline the process of reviewing and managing audit data.

  • The filters on the Access Audits page help users narrow down the audit logs to focus on specific events. The Type filter allows users to select logs based on different event types, such as updates or deletions. The User filter lets users view logs associated with specific individuals, while the Client filter shows logs based on the type of client used, such as a web browser. The Time Range filter allows users to specify a period to view relevant logs. Additionally, the Search Box provides a quick way to find specific entries using keywords. These filters make it easy to locate and analyze relevant audit data efficiently.
