Change Auditor for Exchange 7.2

Exchange Mailbox Protection templates


	NOTE: The cells directly under the main heading rows are used for filtering data. That is, as you enter characters into these cells, the client will redisplay the templates that meet the search criteria (i.e., comparison operator and characters entered). For more details about using the data filtering function provided throughout the client, see the Change Auditor User Guide.

To enable protection, you must first create one or more Exchange Mailbox Protection templates which specify whose mailboxes to lock down. Once Exchange Mailbox Protection templates are defined, they will apply to all Exchange servers that host a Change Auditor agent.


	NOTE: If you are planning to use multiple Exchange Mailbox Protection templates, see the Change Auditor Technical Insight Guide for information on how multiple protection templates are evaluated.


	NOTE: You can also open the protection wizard from the event details pane. Simply open the Search Results tab, select an event, and click the Protect Object button.

To create a protection template:

Open the Administration Tasks tab.

Click Protection.

Select Exchange Mailbox in the Protection task list to open the Exchange Mailbox Protection page.

Click Add to start the Exchange Protection wizard which steps you through the process of defining the mailboxes to protect.

Use the Browse and Search pages to locate and select a directory object (i.e., User, Group, Container, DomainDNS, OrganizationalUnit, or BuiltinDomain) and click Add to add the selected object to the Selected Object list. Repeat this step to add additional directory objects to the template.

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.

On the next page of the wizard, use the Browse or Search page to optionally select user or group accounts which will be allowed to access the protected objects selected on the previous page.

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.)

Click Add to add the selected user or group to the Account list.


	NOTE: The Allow option is selected by default indicating that the selected users or groups are allowed to access the protected objects. However, you can select the Deny option to select individual users or groups that are not allowed to access the protected objects. When using the Deny option, you are allowing all users and groups to access the protected objects except for those selected on this page.

To allow mailbox owners to bypass protection and be able to access their own mailboxes, select the Mailbox owner can bypass protection check box at the top of this page.

Managing Shared Mailboxes

Change Auditor for Exchange generates shared mailbox events for shared mailbox, room and equipment resources, and for any other mailboxes identified as shared. Shared mailbox events are generated only when both of the following conditions exist:

•

The affected mailbox is selected for auditing (i.e., added to the Exchange Mailbox Auditing list on the Administration Tasks tab).

•

The mailbox is either located in an Exchange mailbox store or has been marked as a shared mailbox by the user.


	NOTE: As with individual mailboxes, if the shared mailbox is not added to the Exchange Mailbox Auditing list, the mailbox is not being audited and no events are generated. If the mailbox is not a shared mailbox, room or equipment resource in an Exchange mailbox store and it has not been manually marked as a shared mailbox by the user, then normal mailbox owner or non-owner events will be generated for the affected mailboxes. Many of the shared mailbox events are disabled by default. In order to generate these events, they must first be enabled using the Audit Events page on the Administration Tasks tab.

Use the Exchange Mailbox Auditing page on the Administration Tasks tab to ensure shared mailboxes are set up correctly for auditing. From this page, you can:

•

View a list of shared mailboxes that have been automatically detected in the network. By default, this list is filtered to display only the shared mailboxes selected for auditing.

•

Mark normal mailboxes as ‘shared’ by manually adding them to the shared mailbox list.

To view list of shared mailboxes in the auditing list:

Automatic shared mailbox detection locates shared mail, equipment and room mailboxes in the network.

Open the Administration Tasks tab.

Click Auditing.

Select Exchange Mailboxes under the Applications heading in the Auditing task list.

At the top of the Exchange Mailbox Auditing page, click Shared Mailboxes.

If not already displayed, open the Auto Detected page.

The Auto Detected page displays a read-only list of the shared mailboxes detected in the network.

The Filter Shared Mailboxes Based on Exchange Auditing Scope check box is selected by default and only shared mailboxes that are selected for auditing are displayed. To display all shared mailboxes detected in the network, clear this check box.

Click Close to return to the Exchange Mailbox Auditing page.


	NOTE: If you have not yet added the shared mailboxes to the Exchange Mailbox Auditing list, click Add on the Exchange Mailbox Auditing page to locate and add the mailboxes to audit.

To add mailboxes to shared mailbox list:

Any mailbox can be marked as a shared mailbox by manually adding it to the shared mailbox list.

Open the Administration Tasks tab.

Click Auditing.

Select Exchange Mailboxes under the Applications heading in the Auditing task list.

At the top of the Exchange Mailbox Auditing page, click Shared Mailboxes.

Open the User Defined page on the Shared Mailboxes dialog.

Click Add.

On the Exchange Shared Mailboxes dialog, use the Browse and Search pages to locate and select a directory object (such as User, Group, Container, DomainDNS, OrganizationalUnit, or BuiltinDomain) and click Add to add the selected object to the Selected Object list.

Repeat this step to add additional directory objects to the Exchange Shared Mailbox list.

Click Finish to return to the Shared Mailboxes dialog, where your selections will now be listed on the User Defined page of this dialog.

The default scope of coverage is displayed in the Scope cell. You can change this by placing your cursor in the Scope cell, clicking the arrow control and selecting the appropriate option from the list:

•

Object - to audit an individual object

•

One Level - to audit an object and its direct child objects

•

Subtree - to audit an object all of its subordinate objects (all levels)

The Status field on this page indicates the type of events that are to be generated for the mailbox:

•

Enabled (default) - shared mailbox events are to be generated for the mailbox

•

Disabled - owner or non-owner events are to be generated for the mailbox

To change this setting, place your cursor in the Status cell, click the arrow control and select the appropriate option from the list.

Click Close to save your selections, close the dialog, and return to the Exchange Mailbox Auditing page.


	NOTE: If you have not yet added the ‘marked’ mailboxes to the Exchange Mailbox Auditing list, click Add on the Exchange Mailbox Auditing page to locate and add the mailboxes to audit.
