Audit logging

Kantega SSO provides a basic audit log through the standard slf4j logging facility. It’s enabled via the standard logging configuration. NOTE: While the config examples below write the audit events to the standard application logs, you can also write to a custom file if you prefer.

Both successful and failed Kerberos and SAML logins will be logged. For failed logins, there will be an additional message explaining the cause.
