Introduction

Change Auditor for Exchange simplifies the audit process by tracking the activities taking place in your entire Exchange environment and then provides real-time, detailed alerts about vital changes that occur. Continually being in-the-know helps you prove compliance, drive security, and improve uptime while proactively auditing changes to Exchange Server configurations and performance.

ActiveSync is a feature of Exchange Service which is used to synchronize data between mobile devices and Exchange mailboxes. Change Auditor for Exchange allows you to audit mobile devices using Microsoft ActiveSync interfaces to access email, calendar, contacts, and tasks from their organization’s Microsoft Exchange Server. A new Exchange ActiveSync Monitoring facility has been added to Change Auditor to organize these new events; however, all the new ActiveSync events are included in the existing Exchange subsystem for searching and reporting.

Change Auditor for Exchange also allows you to audit the activities taking place in the Office 365 Exchange Online organization. For details see the Change Auditor for Office 365 and Azure Active Directory Auditing User Guide and Change Auditor for Office 365 and Azure Active Directory Auditing Event Reference Guide.

In addition to real-time event auditing, you can also enable event logging to capture Exchange events locally in a Windows event log. These event logs can then be collected using InTrust to satisfy long-term storage requirements.


	NOTE: Exchange auditing and event logging are only available when you have licensed Change Auditor for Exchange. Contact your Sales Representative for more information about obtaining Change Auditor for Exchange.

This guide lists the events captured by Change Auditor for Exchange. Separate event reference guides are available that list the core Change Auditor events (when any Change Auditor license is applied) and the events captured when the different auditing modules are licensed.
