Activity

Open Activity in the sidebar for the entries of all users and machines. The page of each user and each machine has an Activity tab with only its entries.

What Paron records

Event	Details that you can open
A user signs in or signs out	For a sign-in: the methods that the user used
A user is added	The first values of the user
A user is changed	Each field before and after the change
A user is deleted
The recovery of a user starts	The time when the recovery expires
A sign-in method is added or removed
A machine is added	The first values of the machine
A machine is changed	Each field before and after the change
A machine is deleted
A terminal opens or closes on a machine

Each save makes an entry, also when no field changes. Each entry shows who did it, the item that it is about, and when. When Paron does something by itself, for example when it ends the sessions of a user, the entry shows System. The times are in the time zone of your browser.

Paron does not record passwords or private keys. When a user sets or changes a password, the entry says only that a password was set. When the credentials of a machine change, the entry says only that they were replaced. The host key of a machine shows as its SHA-256 fingerprint.

Who can see which entries

No role is necessary to open Activity. Each user sees the entries about the things that their roles let them see:

Entries	Administrator	Operator
About machines	yes	yes
About users	yes	no

A user with no role sees no entries.
