CloudTrail event loss.

10/09/2023

AWS CloudTrail is a vital service for tracking user activity and API usage across your AWS environment. It provides a detailed audit trail essential for security, compliance, and operational analysis. But what happens when CloudTrail events are lost or missing? This can compromise investigations, compliance requirements, and system transparency.

Informatix Systems offers specialized support to identify, resolve, and prevent CloudTrail event loss so that your environment remains secure and auditable.

What Causes CloudTrail Event Loss?

Missing or delayed CloudTrail logs can be caused by several factors, including:

  • Misconfigured or inactive trails

  • Log delivery issues to Amazon S3 or CloudWatch

  • Region-specific trail misalignment

  • Event filtering settings, excluding critical operations

  • Resource limits or service outages

These gaps in event logging can leave blind spots in your monitoring and compliance systems.
