Change Auditor for Exchange 7.2 - User Guide

Exchange Mailbox Auditing

Introduction

Exchange mailbox auditing helps tighten enterprise-wide change and control policies by tracking user and administrator activity such as user account changes, delivery restriction changes, send on behalf updates, and more. With these real-time alerts and in-depth analysis and reporting capabilities, your Exchange infrastructure is always protected from exposure to suspicious behavior or unauthorized access and kept in compliance with corporate and government standards.

Before the system is returned to normal load, one user should log on to Outlook Web Access (OWA), Outlook (Outlook for Mac) clients. This triggers the agent to process the mailbox auditing and protection configuration changes when the fewest logins are occurring.

If necessary, you can disable forcing Outlook reconnections on a server-by-server basis. Contact Quest Technical Support for additional information.

To enable mailbox auditing, you define a mailbox auditing list that contains the directory objects whose mailbox activities you want to audit. Change Auditor for Exchange generates shared mailbox events for shared mailbox, room and equipment resources, and for any other mailboxes that the user has identified as shared. See the Managing Shared Mailboxes appendix for more information.

In Change Auditor, some mailbox events are disabled by default due to the potentially high volume of events that can occur. To captured these events, enable them using the Audit Events page of the Administration Tasks tab.

To avoid generating these events, do not add the user account for the mailbox to be moved to the list on the Exchange Mailbox Auditing page on the Administration Tasks tab.

Exchange Mailbox Auditing page

The Exchange Mailbox Auditing page contains a list of the directory objects whose mailboxes are to be audited. If a directory object is not listed on this page, its mailbox will not be audited. To add a directory object to this list, click Add. Once added, the following information is displayed:

To change this setting, place your cursor in this cell, click the arrow control, and select Yes to exclude the directory object or No to include the directory object in the auditing process.
To change this setting, place your cursor in this cell, click the arrow control, and select Enabled to enable the audit object or Disabled to disable the audit object.
