Introduction

Change Auditor for SQL Server provides database auditing to secure SQL database assets with extensive, customizable auditing and reporting for all critical SQL Server changes including broker, database, object, performance, transaction events, changes to databases and tables, plus errors and warnings. SQL auditing helps tighten enterprise-wide change and control policies by tracking user and administrator activity such as database additions and deletions, granting and removing SQL access, and so on.

To enable SQL Server auditing, you must assign templates to the Change Auditor agents which define the SQL instances and event classes to audit; SQL Data Level auditing is assigned to a single agent when a template is created.

To enable SQL Extended Events auditing (preview feature), you must define a SQL Extended Events auditing template for each target SQL Server instance to be audited by Change Auditor.

This guide has been prepared to assist you in becoming familiar with Change Auditor for SQL Server. It is intended for network administrators, consultants, analysts, and any other IT professionals using the product.
