Audit information for US M-21-31
« on: March 14, 2024, 10:53:32 pm »
I've just been asked about the exporting of EA Audit information, to support some new US regulation "M-21-31".
It looks like a very far-reaching requirement, to export information about everything that every user edits and views in an EA model.
I have never been asked for anything like this before, but I expect that, if it's a new US regulation, then other parts of the Federal government might ask for it in future.
@Sparx USA: might be an opportinity here for you to create a useful offering?
Hopefully the lack of this function will not stop the US government from using EA.

Hmm, so I guess US government will stop working with Word, Excel, Adobe, and about every tool that currently exists?

That can't be real can it? Aren't there shortcuts to be made? You know someone potentially viewed anything in the model if they logged into the model, just like you know they potentially viewed every page of a document if they opened it.

You then may also want to consider the option of logging views using WebEA or Prolaborate...
