When your data security administrators review DLP incidents to review sensitive data snippets, Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP) now generates an audit log to provide complete visibility into who accessed this information and when. This enables compliance monitoring and to adhere to data governance requirements when performing an audit.

Audit Logging for Snippet Access captures essential details including user identity, access timestamps, and the specific incident ID accessed. The audit logs exclude the actual snippet accessed to maintain data security while providing the accountability trail you need for compliance reporting.

Audit Logging for Snippet Access satisfies regulatory requirements that mandate tracking access to sensitive information. It demonstrates to auditors that your organization maintains proper data governance controls, and can detect unusual access patterns that might indicate insider threats or compromised accounts. The audit log generation occurs transparently without impacting your incident response workflow or requiring additional steps from your security analysts.

Organizations operating under strict compliance frameworks particularly benefit from this feature as it transforms incident response activities from potential compliance liabilities into documented evidence of responsible data handling. Your data security administrators gain the ability to produce detailed access reports for compliance audits, investigate potential data breaches involving snippet access, and establish clear accountability for sensitive data exposure during incident investigations. The automated nature of the logging ensures consistent record-keeping without relying on manual processes that are prone to gaps or errors in high-pressure incident response scenarios.
