Yes, the SQL Server cloud database supports viewing audit logs. Audit logs are essential for tracking and monitoring database activities, ensuring security, and complying with regulatory requirements.
In a cloud-based SQL Server environment, audit logs can record actions such as user logins, executed queries, schema changes, and data modifications. These logs help administrators identify suspicious activities, troubleshoot issues, and maintain compliance with standards like GDPR or HIPAA.
For example, if a company uses a cloud SQL Server to manage customer data, it can enable auditing to track who accessed sensitive information and when. This is crucial for security and regulatory reporting.
In the context of Tencent Cloud's SQL Server solutions, it provides robust auditing capabilities through features like SQL Server Audit and integrates with Tencent Cloud Security Center for enhanced monitoring and alerting. Administrators can view audit logs via the Tencent Cloud console or APIs, ensuring transparency and control over database operations.
Example: A financial services company uses Tencent Cloud's SQL Server to store transaction records. By enabling audit logging, it can track all queries executed on the database, ensuring compliance with financial regulations and detecting any unauthorized access attempts.
