Introduction

Audit events are the changes captured by agents, reported to a coordinator, and then written to the database. These events can be retrieved and viewed through searches. When you run a search, Change Auditor searches the events in the database for the desired results. The results are then displayed in the Search Results page.

The terms ‘searches’ and ‘reports’ are used in conjunction to acquire the desired output. You run a 'search' and the results returned is a ‘report’.

Auditing and centralizing the collection of events is only one part of the total control and output required for enterprise security and compliance. It is equally important to be able to retrieve the real-time data and sort through it quickly and efficiently.

 

Search Results page

Search Results page

A new results page is created whenever a search is run. When a search is run, this page displays detailed information about the events found as a result of the search. This page consists of the following panes:

•
Search Results grid
•
Search Properties tabs or Event Details pane

Search Results grid

Previous Next

Search Results grid

The Search Results grid displays the events captured as a result of running a search from the Searches page. The top area of the grid displays the following information:

Run on

Displays the date and time when the search was run.

* 
NOTE: Based on the client’s current local date and time. The format used to display this date and time is determined by the local machine’s regional and language setting.
Run Time

Displays the amount of time it took to run the search.

Records

Displays the total number of records returned.

Refresh

Use the Refresh button to redisplay the latest information.

Cancel

When a large number of records are being captured for display, the Refresh button will become a Cancel button allowing you to cancel the search.

 

By default, the grid contains the following information about the events returned when a search is run. (You can specify the columns, sort order and grouping for a search, as well as the display format by using the Layout search properties tab.)

 

Table 1. Search Results grid: Event information displayed by default

Column

Description

Action

Displays what change was made to the object.

AD Failure Reason

Displays the reason for the Active Directory failed event.

Result

Indicates whether the operation mentioned in the event was successfully completed. Valid states are:

•
Success - Indicates the operation occurred as stated in the event.
•
Protected - Indicates that the operation was prevented from occurring because the object is protected by the Change Auditor object locking feature.
•
Failed - indicates that the operation was prevented from occurring due to a factor/setting outside of Change Auditor’s control.
•
None - indicates that the operation occurred as stated, but no results were captured for the event. For example, this state is used for most of the internal Change Auditor events.

Server

Displays the name of the server where the change occurred.

Severity

Displays the severity assigned to a configuration change event:

•
High
•
Medium
•
Low

Site

Displays the name of the site where the agented server resides.

Subsystem

Defines the subsystem, or area of auditing, where the change event occurred.

Time Detected

Displays the date and time when the agent captured the event.

NOTE: Based on the client’s current local date and time. The format used to display this date and time is determined by the local machine’s regional and language setting.
NOTE: For Microsoft Entra sign in events the time detected in the search results references the sign-in time.

User

Displays the name of the user who initiated the change.

Search Properties tabs

Previous Next

Search Properties tabs

From a Search Results page, use the Search Properties tool bar button to display the Search Properties tabs across the bottom of the screen. This view consists of tabbed pages defining the criteria or properties which make up the selected search.

For a detailed description of the Info, Who, What, Where, Origin and Layout tabs and how to use them to create a custom search, refer to Custom Searches and Search Properties. For more information about the Alert tab, see Enable Alert Notifications and the Report tab, see Generate and Schedule Reports.
