Viewing Logs

If traffic to be audited pass through the FW and matches the audit policy, the FW generates an audit log. The audit administrator can log in to the FW and view audit logs. The following figure shows an audit log for FTP traffic.

AUDIT/6/FTP(l):The FTP audit policy was matched. (SyslogId=3875934209, VSys="public", AuditPolicy="policy_audit",
 SrcIp=192.168.0.2, DstIp=192.168.1.2, SrcPort=65255, DstPort=21, SrcZone=trust, DstZone=untrust, User="user01",
 Protocol=TCP, Application="FTP", Profile="profile_audit", AuditType="User Executing a Command", EventNum=1,
 Direction=upload, Command="USER 123", FileName="", FileSize=0, Action=allow)

The following table describes the meanings of each field.

The following uses an FTP audit log as an example. In addition to FTP audit logs, the FW supports HTTP, IM, mail, and band reminder audit logs. For details, see AUDIT.

In the audit log analysis process, if audit logs show behaviors that may lead to information leaks or non-work-related behaviors during working hours, you can modify the corresponding audit policy and audit profiles.

  • If users frequently access non-work-related websites during working hours, you can modify the URL filtering profile to blacklist these websites.
  • If users post confidential information and non-work-related information on BBS or microblogs, modify the data filtering profile. Add keywords about the confidential information to the keyword group of data filtering rules and set the action for the rules to block.
  • If users download large-sized videos through HTTP or FTP, modify the application behavior control profile. Set a threshold size for files that can be downloaded. Downloading of files larger than this size will be blocked.

For operation details, see Security Policy.
