Exchange Searches and Reports

•
Introduction
•
Run the All Exchange Events report
•
Create custom Exchange searches

Introduction

Change Auditor delivers both preconfigured and customizable reports displaying events from Exchange servers in one centralized viewer. Change Auditor for Exchange provides two subsystems related to Exchange auditing:

•
The Exchange subsystem is used for administration, searching and reporting on the Exchange events contained in the following facilities:
•
Exchange ActiveSync Monitoring
•
Exchange Administrative Group
•
Exchange Distribution List
•
Exchange Mailbox Monitoring
•
Exchange Organization
•
Exchange Permission Tracking
•
Exchange User
•
The Office 365 subsystem is used for administrators, searching and reporting on events contained in the following facilities:
•
Office 365 Exchange Online Administration
•
Office 365 Exchange Online Mailbox
* 
NOTE: See the Office 365 and Azure Active Directory Auditing User Guide for details.

Run the All Exchange Events report

Running this report retrieves the Exchange events captured on all Exchange servers hosting a Change Auditor agent.

* 
NOTE: This query uses the Exchange subsystem; therefore, it returns all Exchange events except for Office 365 Exchange Online events.
1
Open the client and the Searches tab.
2
In the explorer view (left pane), expand the Shared | Built-in | All Events folder.
3
Locate and double-click All Exchange Events.
This displays a new Search Results page displaying the Exchange events captured over the last seven days.
 
* 
NOTE: To retrieve the Exchange events captured over the last 24 hours, use the All Exchange Events in the last 24 hours report under the Shared | Built-In | Recommended Best Practice | Exchange folder.

Create custom Exchange searches

The following scenarios explain how to use the What tab to create custom Exchange searches.
* 
NOTE: You can use the other search properties tabs to define more criteria:
•
Who - allows you to search for events generated by a specific user
•
Where - allows you to search for events captured by a specific agent
•
When - allows you to search for events that occurred within a specific date/time range
•
Origin - allows you to search for events that originated from a specific workstation or server
To search for changes to a specific Exchange container:
1
Open the Searches page.
2
In the explorer view (left pane), expand and select the folder where you want to save your search.
Selecting the Private folder creates a search that only you can run and view, whereas selecting the Shared folder crates a search which can be run and viewed by all Change Auditor users.
3
Click New to enable the Search Properties tabs across the bottom of the Searches page.
4
On the Info tab, enter a name and description for the search.
5
On the What tab, expand Add and click Subsystem | Exchange to display the Add Exchange Container dialog.
* 
NOTE: You can use Add with Events | Subsystem | Exchange to search for an entity that already has an event associated with it in the database.
6
On the Add Exchange Container dialog, select one of the following options to define the scope of coverage:
•
All Exchange Objects - select to include all objects. (Default when Add is used.)
•
This Object - select to include the selected objects only. (Default when Add With Events is used.)
•
This Object and Child Objects Only - select to include the selected objects and its direct child objects.
•
This Object and All Child Objects - select to include the selected objects and all subordinate objects (in all levels).
•
Members of this group - select this option to show changes made to users in a specified group. Nested groups are not supported.
* 
NOTE: You cannot exclude selections or use the *Like wildcard option when the scope is specified as Members of this group.
7
By default, All Actions is selected meaning that all the activity associated with the object generates an audited event. However, you can clear the All Actions option and select individual options. The options available are:
•
All Actions - select to include when any of the following actions occur (Default)
•
Add Attribute - select to include when an attribute is added
•
Delete Attribute - select to include when an attribute is deleted
•
Modify Attribute - select to include when an attribute is modified
•
Rename Object - select to include when an object is renamed
•
Add Object - select to include when an object is added
•
Delete Object - select to include when an object is deleted
•
Move Object - select to include when an object is moved
•
Other - select to include other types of activity against the selected object
8
By default, All Transports is selected indicating that all Exchange events regardless of the transport protocol used are included in the search. However, you can clear the All Transports option and select individual options. The transport options available are:
•
All Transports - select to include Exchange events regardless of the transport protocol used (Default)
•
All Transports - select to include LDAP operation or LDAP queries regardless of the transport protocol used (Default)
•
SSL/TLS - select to include LDAP operation or LDAP queries that are secured using SSL or TLS technology
•
Kerberos- select to include LDAP operation or LDAP queries that are signed using Kerberos-based encryption
•
Simple Bind - select to include LDAP operation or LDAP queries that are secured using simple bind authentication (neither SSL\TLS or Kerberos used)
•
Port - select to identify a specific port used for communication
* 
NOTE: When you clear the All Transports check box and select both the SSL/TLS and Kerberos check boxes, only AD queries using both of these transport protocols will be included in the search results.
9
When a scope other than All Exchange Objects is selected, the directory object picker is enabled to select the objects to include in the search definition.
Use either the Browse or Search page to locate and select the Exchange containers to include.
If required, use the Forest drop-down box to select in which forest the objects reside. Foreign agent forests may require foreign forests credentials which can be entered on the Credentials Required dialog.
Use the Options page to view or modify the search options to retrieve directory objects.
You can also select Import Objects to import a .csv (comma separated value) file containing a list of directory objects. Using this list, you can specify object names and optional values for the search criteria. You can use the * wildcard character to match any string of zero or more characters when specifying the Name values.
* 
NOTE: For optimal performance, do not include more than 1000 objects in your import file.
The import will fail and an error message will be displayed if any errors are detected with the column names or specified values.
* 
NOTE: Column names and values must be separated with a comma.
* 
NOTE: If an optional column name is not specified, then the default All is used for the value for each object. The default All is also used if the optional column is specified, but the value is empty. Mandatory Name values cannot be empty.
