Introducing ExchangeDefender Security Audit Logs
================================================

### ExchangeDefender launches New Security Logs

I have some great news - ExchangeDefender security logs are now available for all users of ExchangeDefender. This move is a part of our larger security ambition for 2019 to introduce Enterprise features of ExchangeDefender across our lower MSP, SMB and retail tiers in order to improve service security.

One of the biggest things in 2019 is the end of the era for plain text passwords. People love them, MSPs rely on them, they are super convenient for everyone including... the hackers that are looking to break in. But more on that in a minute.

The single simplest way to stay on top of account security... is identifying break-in attempts. ExchangeDefender Enterprise logs every event, login, escalation (and so, when you as the enterprise administrator or organization owner choose to automatically login as the user for support purposes) attempt.

> ### We're happy to bring this feature in across both the service provider, domain and user login. Free of charge.

As the admin or service provider you also have the ability to search the account log for specific user or address that is causing problems. In the Enterprise version you have the ability to further lock things down based on IP, location, charset, and more. But if/when there is an issue, you can clearly see if the account has been compromised. At all other times, you can see login failures that are a good indication that there is a problem.

This feature, and a whole lot more, is coming down to the ExchangeDefender SMB land. While all these features were a premium in the past, the extent to which everything from your PC and the network devices that surround you are susceptible to compromise - we have to treat these features as what they are - essential to your security. As a matter of fact, we'll be discussing this **next Wednesday in our webinar**:

\*\*When:\*\***Noon, Wednesday, February 6th**

**Where:**[**https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/4562047862967330307**](https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/4562047862967330307)

Hope to see you there.

Sincerely, Vlad Mazek CEO ExchangeDefender
