Change Auditor for Exchange 7.4 - User Guide

Exchange event logging

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

When event logging for Exchange is enabled in Change Auditor, the following types of Exchange events are sent to the InTrust for Exchange event log:

•
ActiveSync events
•
Exchange Mailbox events, including non-owner, owner, permission and protection events
* 
NOTE: Only configured Exchange Mailbox activities are sent to the event log.
•
Public folder events
•
Store mount events
•
System events
•
Exchange Administrative PowerShell events

See the Change Auditor for Exchange Event Reference Guide for a list of the events that can be sent to this event log.

To enable Exchange event logging:
1
Open the Administration Tasks tab.
2
Click Configuration.
3
Select Agent in the Configuration task list to display the Agent Configuration page.
4
Click Event Logging.
5
On the Event Logging dialog, select Exchange.
6
Click OK to save your selection and close the dialog.
Exchange events, including activities associated with the Exchange Mailboxes included on the Exchange Mailbox Auditing list, will then to be sent to the event log.

Exchange mailbox protection introduction

Using mailbox protection, you can prevent unwanted access on critical mailboxes through an Exchange Mailbox Protection template.

* 
NOTE:  
•
Protection is designed to protect a few high-value mailboxes.
•
Protection prevents unauthorized users from accessing a protected mailbox through Outlook clients, OWA; it does not prevent access using ActiveSync or permission changes on the mailbox through the Exchange Administration tools.
•
You can specify users and groups who can access protected mailboxes.
•
After monitoring has been enabled or changed, it may take several minutes to complete the configuration process necessary to enable protection on the agent. Protecting a large number of mailboxes slows down the configuration process.
•
Agent processing of Exchange auditing and protection configurations may slow down initial user logon access or cause timeouts if many user logins occur at the same time. To avoid this issue, Quest recommends that changes to mailbox auditing or protection configurations be performed during maintenance intervals or other periods of low user mailbox activity.
Before the system is returned to normal load, one user should log in to Outlook Web Access (OWA), and Outlook clients. This triggers the agent to process the Exchange Mailbox auditing and protection configuration changes when the fewest login are occurring.
