Audit logs
Monitor key activities that your team members are performing

These logs can be used to get an analysis of how your BrowserStack account is being accessed and how members of your organization are using BrowserStack. This will enable security teams to diagnose problems or answer questions related to users’ product access, accounts, organization settings, etc.
