What purpose does the PSM Logs Folder serve?

The PSM Logs Folder is specifically designed to store PSM (Privileged Session Manager) activity log files. These log files are crucial for monitoring and auditing the actions taken during privileged sessions. They provide a detailed record of users' interactions with sensitive systems and applications, enabling organizations to maintain security compliance and investigate any potential security incidents. By maintaining these logs, organizations can review session recordings, track user actions, and perform forensic analysis if needed.

While user access logs, configuration change logs, and system performance logs are important for broader security and system administration tasks, they are typically managed in separate log directories or systems unrelated to the PSM session activities specifically. The focus of the PSM Logs Folder is solely on the activity related to privileged access sessions, making it an essential component for security monitoring in environments that utilize CyberArk's PSM.
