# Enable Identity and Access Audit tool

# Enable Identity and Access Audit tool {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Use Identity and Access Audit to track changes to user accounts, groups, and roles.
Use Identity and Access Audit to track critical information about modifications made to user accounts, groups, and roles. Enable this feature to help detect malicious users, track unusual activity on your instance, and adhere to
compliance standards for tracking access changes.

This tool stores audit records of successful create, update, and delete transactions to the Security Table Audits \[sys_security_table_level_audit\] table.  
Important:  
Identity and Access Audit doesn't audit successful read transactions, or any unsuccessful transactions.

Ensure that the Identity Security Audit (com.glide.security.audit) plugin is installed. After the plugin is installed, ensure that the glide.identity.security.audit.enabled system property
is set to <kbd class="ph userinput">true</kbd>, or doesn't exist in the System Properties \[sys_properties\] table.
