While textual logs are nice, most privileged actions require logging some sort of sensitive data. As such, we should consider adding a proper audit log, stored in the database, with important events.

Examples of actions that could be stored:

  • Account creation ACC_CREATE
  • Account logged in ACC_LOGIN

This audit log must never be accessible to users. This is a strictly administrative log intended for recovering from catastrophic events.

The deletion of an account from EpiLink should also delete (or rather censor) relevant elements within the database after a delay (like 30 days).

In the mean time, if advanced logging is required, users should set epilink's logging to DEBUG and roll with that to get spammed with stuff.
