4.0 Auditing Concepts

This documentation describes Auditing, its functions, and features.

Auditing can be applied to nonauditing activities. For example, an administrator might set up an audit file as a log for analyzing and monitoring network usage, or an NLM application might use an audit file to track special events. Auditing provides the interface to the auditing system, giving your applications secure procedures for setting up audits and reading the results of auditing sessions.
