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 organization by themselves. Have someone in your organization 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 | You can review a list of successful and failed login attempts to your organization 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 | Administrators can view a Setup Audit Trail, which logs when modifications are made to your organization's configuration. |
