Event monitoring

One last feature that helps us keep our data secure is event monitoring, which is a tool that is meant to get granular details of user activity on our organization. These kinds of actions are called events. Tracking events ensures that we can identify abnormal organization usage.

You can monitor a great number of events, including logins (we already covered this information in the Monitoring the login history section), Visualforce page loads, API calls, and even report exports.

Protecting data is crucial in our daily work, so what could happen if one of our sales reps, who is going to leave our company, exports a report containing all the leads? This is not good for our security, and it may mean that something bad has just happened.
