WebDAV Logs

Files.com provides detailed audit log of actions made to your site by WebDAV clients. These audit log contains essential details such as the time of action, remote IP, server IP, user, authentication ciphers, action, path, file names, size, entries returned, duration, status, and more.

We currently retain these logs for 30 days, but we are gradually increasing this to 180 days, with the 180-day retention expected to be in place by 2025.
