Abstract

Systems, methods, and machine-readable media are disclosed to provide for auditing of events or access of resources in a distributed system. In one embodiment, auditing access of resources can comprise receiving from a client a request to access one or more of the resources. A sign-on identifier can be assigned to a user of the client requesting to access the resources. The user identifier and sign-on identifier can be provided to one or more applications managing the one or more resources requested by the client. The resources requested by the client can be accessed based on the request. A record of the access of the resources requested by the client can be logged in a repository. Based on these records and information relating to prohibited activity, a determination can be made as to whether a prohibited activity is being performed by one or more users.
