Can we inspect audit information?
Inspect the audit and execution records available for the operation in question, including actor context, timestamps and results. Coverage, retention and privileged access must be verified. An append-only application design is not a promise that every possible state change is captured or that a database administrator cannot alter storage. Read more.
Can we see what changed after we acted?
Compare subsequent readings and programme evidence with the earlier period, checking scope, definition changes and missing inputs. Impact review can record what changed and what was undertaken. A before-and-after difference alone does not establish that the action caused the change. Read more.
