Monitoring Searching of Sensitive Data

Is there a way to monitor the searches for some specific fields?

Let's say I wish to monitor if anyone is running any query that returns my SSN in the results.

Hi. You will want to look at the audit log in index _audit. You can find the search field to see what was searched for and lots more.
