Hi,

Is the data passed in the audit log encrypted or does it depend on the user permission?

Thanks

In a sense you're encrypting the data being passed into the audit log if you've enabled TLS. However, the audit log really is just polling data from the controller_audit_v2 table in the database. The database permissions and the log itself ultimately though are sitting on the Controller, so you can control user permissions that way.
