What is inside the Audit Report


Overview

It is possible to download the Audit Report in Excel format after the scanning has completed.

The report helps to answer the following questions

  • Who has access to the project?

  • What kind of access the user have?

  • How come the user has access to the project?

This page explains the information provided in the Audit Report. 


Organization

The report will list down all the users for all the selected projects. If the user has some permissions for the project, there will be a row added in the report. If the user does not have any permissions for the project, it will not be included in the project.

i.e. If a user has access to 5 projects. There will be 5 rows for that user.

To avoid cluttering the report, deactivated users are excluded from the report.
