Description Component
There are two possible levels for the Activity Log:
• Normal: All requests received by the KMS Server are recorded in the log. This is the
default log level.
• Low: All requests received by the KMS Server, except for successful cryptographic
requests, are recorded in the log.
Log entries include the request type, request details (such as key name), and indicate if
the request was successful.
IMPORTANT:
Setting the log level to Low may put the SKM out of compliance with the Payment
Card Industry (PCI) data security standard for maintaining an audit trail of all key
accesses.
