Audit trail
- A security-relevant chronological record, set of records, or destination and source of records that provide documentary evidence of the sequence of activities that have affected a specific operation, procedure, event, or device at any time. Audit records typically result from activities such as transactions or communications by individual people, accounts, systems, or other entities. The process that creates an audit trail is typically required to run in a privileged mode, so it can access and supervise all actions from all users; a normal user should not be allowed to stop or change it. ← Wikipedia
