Summary

HCP Packer has added audit logs to monitor user activity across multi-cloud environments, providing organizations with visibility into their image iterations, buckets, and channels. This enhancement offers insight into the lifecycles of artifacts, allowing users to track changes and identify security risks or compliance issues. The audit logs contain metadata such as timestamp, organization and project ID, and describe operations performed in HCP Packer. These logs can be streamed in near real-time using industry-standard monitoring solutions like Amazon CloudWatch or Datadog, enabling organizations to improve their visibility and security by actively monitoring user activity and ensuring compliance standards are met.
