Only properly configured shares on SFS are allowed to store high-risk data. These configurations include a separate volume as a secure transfer location for audit reports. SFS adds auditing to all SMB shares. Share owners may request audit log reports as needed. (As of Fall of 2022, share owners no longer have to perform any auditing configuration.)

Auditing is enabled for all SMB shares provisioned by SFS, but is only required on high-risk (formerly L1 or confidential) or HIPAA configurations.
