Security Analysis

When a security issue arises with the user's cloud account or resources, the logs recorded by CA can help the user analyze the cause. For example, CA records all account log-in operations of the user, the time of operation, the source IP address, and whether multi-factor authentication was used for log-in. These are all recorded in detail, and through these logs, users can determine if there are any security issues with their accounts.

Resource Change Tracking

When an exceptional change occurs to the user's resources, the operation logs recorded by CA can help the user find the reason. For instance, when a CVM instance is found down, the user can use CA to find the corresponding operation time and source IP address to analyze the initiated shutdown operation.

Compliance Audit

If the user's organization has multiple members, and the user has already used the cloud platform's CAM service to manage the identities of these members, then to meet the compliance audit needs of the user's organization, a detailed operation record of each member is necessary. The operation events recorded by CA can meet these compliance audit requirements.
