Validating audit trail records
You can validate audit trail records to ensure changes were made using Helix ALM instead of other ways, such as accidental corruption caused by an RDBMS server crash. You can only validate audit trail records created in Helix ALM (and TestTrack 7.1 - 2016.1).
This validation cannot determine if items were modified through a malicious action. Make sure to follow proper security best practices to protect your data from hacking. See the Security Best Practices for information.
