<p>Auditing is how GlassFish Server records significant events, such as errors or security breaches. GlassFish Server records all authentication events in log files. A complete access log provides a sequential trail of GlassFish Server access events.</p>
<p>The GlassFish Server provides a simple default audit module; for more information, see <a href="task-usedefaultauditmod.html">To Use the Default Audit Module</a>.</p>
