ActionTrailThis feature helps users gain a complete, 360-degree view of their AccessKey pair activity. By integrating data plane events directly into the AccessKey pair auditing feature, users can now track not only how their AccessKey pairs are managed (control plane) but also what data they are accessing (data plane), all in one place.
This feature also provides a granular audit trail with flexible delivery options to chosen storage, giving users the necessary data for any reporting and regulatory requirement.

Target customers: enterprises requiring comprehensive security governance and compliance auditing for their AccessKey pairs, including the need to manage and validate the lifecycle of all AccessKey pairs. New feature/specification: After users create a data plane trail in their account and enable the AccessKey pair auditing feature, the system will automatically begin incorporating all relevant data plane events alongside existing control plane events. This provides a single, unified view of all operations performed by an AccessKey pair, ensuring users never miss critical activity.
