Check summary
What this check verifies
The Microsoft Graph audit log probe returned zero records for the past 24 hours.
Why it matters
A healthy tenant with normal user activity should produce hundreds to millions of audit records per day. Zero records over 24 hours strongly suggests audit ingestion is broken, the audit subsystem is paused, or the query permissions are scoped to a partition with no events.
How to fix it
This blinds the investigation, monitoring, and compliance reporting paths that depend on unified audit log data.
Siemserva flags every tenant where this check fails and, with Senserva Trustworthy AI remediation, can propose a validated fix you approve before it applies.
