Lack of BRMS auditing

BRMS does not log changes made to backup control groups, policies, and other configurable options into a specific table or journal. Having BRMS log changes to backup control groups, policies, and other configurable options into a dedicated table or journal is essential for maintaining strong audit capabilities. Without this logging, it becomes difficult to track who made modifications, when they occurred, and what was changed—leaving gaps in accountability and compliance reporting. From a security perspective, unlogged changes create opportunities for misconfigurations or malicious alterations to go unnoticed, which could compromise backup integrity and recovery processes. Implementing detailed change logging aligns with industry best practices and regulatory requirements, ensuring organizations can demonstrate proper governance, detect anomalies quickly, and safeguard critical data assets.
