Frequently asked questions

1. What are SQL Server logs?

SQL Server logs are records of activities and events within a Microsoft SQL Server database system. The different types of SQL Server logs are:

  • Transaction logs: These track all changes made to the database.
  • Error logs: These show the critical errors and exceptions encountered in the SQL Server instance.
  • SQL Server agent logs: These handle scheduled jobs, alerts, and other automated tasks.
  • Database backup and restore logs: These show the successful and failed backup operations.
  • Profiler and extended event logs: These allow you to capture and analyze events in real time.
  • Windows event logs: These provide information about server startup and shutdown as well as security-related activities.

2. Why do you need to audit your Microsoft SQL database?

Granular auditing of user data on Microsoft SQL Server is crucial not only for the swift detection of and response to security incidents but also for retracing an attacker's steps in the worst-case scenario of a data breach. Through Microsoft SQL Server auditing, you can learn the frequency of logon activities within your database, visualize any patterns in logon failures, and ensure your data and system remain protected at all times.
