# Viewing Audit Trail

The **Audit** tab displays a trail of all security-sensitive events such as logging in, database creation, connecting to Salesforce organizations, backup and restore operations, and so on. You can use this information for management and monitoring purposes.

To track Veeam Backup for Salesforce events, do the following:

1. Switch to the **Configuration** page.
2. Navigate to **Security** > **Audit**.

::: notes

- Dates in the **Event** column are always displayed in the following format: `[yyyy-mm-dd]`.
- All audit log files are automatically saved to the `/var/log/vbsf/audit/vbsf_audit.log` file. 
- All audit log files older than 1 year are automatically removed by the product.
