Exchange mailbox audit logging tool

Emails form the backbone of workplace communications. A lot of personal information and business-critical data gets transmitted via emails every day. But you never know when an unscrupulous employee might try to gain access to a mailbox containing classified information for malicious purposes. This would call for an internal audit of the Exchange mailbox logs.

During an internal investigation, keeping an eye on the Exchange mailbox audit logs can help you:

• Uncover who has access rights to important mailboxes using Exchange audit logs.
• Identify users who recently accessed the compromised mailboxes with Exchange mailbox access logs.
• Discover what actions were performed on compromised mailboxes with mailbox audit logging.
• Track Exchange mailbox access logs to ensure that only owners and trusted delegates have access to mailboxes in your organization.
• Prevent data loss and leaks by monitoring the Exchange mailbox audit logs of your organization.

Additionally, an Exchange audit logging feature that enables you to configure real-time alerts for user actions on mailboxes for Exchange Servers and Exchange Online helps you proactively address potential issues.

ManageEngine's Exchange Reporter Plus provides reporting and auditing features for Exchange Online.
