What are log files?

  

Answers

These are special system files that keep a record (log) of events on the use of the computers and resources of the information system.
Each user is usually assigned a username & password or account. The information system administrator can therefore easily track who accessed the system, when and what they did on the system. This information can help monitor & track people who are likely to violate system security policies.
