          Auditing

          Auditing

          Auditing provides information about use of the system, which can be critical in diagnosing potential or real security issues. Salesforce auditing features don't secure your org by themselves. Have someone in your org perform regular audits to detect potential abuse.

          To verify that your system is secure, monitor for unexpected changes or usage trends.

          Auditing Feature Description
          Record Modification Fields All objects include fields to store the name of the user who created the record and who last modified the record. These fields provide basic auditing information.
          Login History Review a list of successful and failed login attempts to your org for the past 6 months.
          Field History Tracking You can enable auditing for individual fields, which automatically track any changes in the values of selected fields. Although auditing is available for all custom objects, only some standard objects allow field-level auditing.
          Setup Audit Trail Salesforce admins can view the Setup Audit Trail, which logs when modifications are made to your Salesforce configuration.
