CEF logging

Common Event Format (CEF) events generated by the Password Reset service.

Password Reset writes event log entries in Common Event Format (CEF). These events can be used for follow-up, traceability, and audit.

By default, CEF events are written to logs/event.log.

Typical events include:

  • PWDRESET_001 - Password reset performed
  • PWDRESET_002 - Password reset failed

Examples of when these events are useful:

  • confirming that a password reset was completed
  • identifying failed reset attempts during troubleshooting
  • following up on delegated resets performed on behalf of another user
