Audit trail
A chronological, tamper-evident record of the actions taken in a system, capturing what happened, when, and by whom, so activity can be reviewed and verified.
In more detail
An audit trail is the record of what happened: a chronological log of actions, capturing what was done, when, and by whom or what. It is the basis for accountability and for answering after the fact questions, what changed this record, who approved this, when did this run, that are impossible to answer without a durable log.
For automation, an audit trail is not optional bookkeeping; it is what makes an autonomous system trustworthy. When software takes actions on real systems, the ability to review exactly what it did, and to show that record to an auditor, is what separates a system a business can rely on from an opaque one that acts invisibly.
Where this shows up at Ceven
A full audit trail is core to Ceven by design. Every step a workflow takes and every approval a person gives is recorded, so what an agent did is always reviewable rather than hidden. That record is what makes Ceven's automation accountable, supports compliance evidence, and lets a team trust the platform to act on their real systems.
