ACCESS LOG#a1f#9c4#e07#3bd
Fig. 05 / Audit Trail ArchiveLive

When finance, legal or operations ask who opened a file and when, an answer from memory is not enough. Audit Trail Archive keeps records in write-once storage for the retention period you choose and writes each access to a log that is chained together, so any alteration of the history shows up.

What is inside

Built-in tools

  • F-01

    Write-once retention

    Archived records cannot be edited or deleted until the retention period you set has ended.

  • F-02

    Hash-chained access log

    Each log entry is linked to the one before it, so tampering with the history is detectable.

  • F-03

    Searchable trail

    Filter by person, file, action or date range to answer an access question in seconds.

  • F-04

    Legal holds

    Freeze an archive or a single record so it cannot expire while a matter is open.

  • F-05

    Retention schedules

    Set different retention periods for invoices, contracts, drawings and project files.

  • F-06

    Reviewer exports

    Hand an auditor a filtered log as CSV or PDF without giving them access to the files.

Questions

Good to know

Can an administrator delete an archived record early?
Not while retention is running. Administrators can shorten nothing inside a locked period, and attempts to do so are recorded in the log.
What does tamper-evident mean here?
Every log entry carries a fingerprint of the entry before it. If any past entry is altered, the chain no longer matches and the break is visible.
Who can read the access log?
Only people you grant the Auditor role. They see the log but not the file contents unless you also give them access.
