# Reporting on the configuration database and audit logs

While other reports are based on logs and statistics, the System Report is based on information collected from the Management Server’s configuration database and audit logs.

The report includes details like administrator and Web Portal user activity, account settings, configuration of and changes to the Engine and IPS engines, and configuration of the Management Server.

The report can help you provide the required data for auditing in compliance with regulations, such as the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard.

The report is generated, exported, and edited in the same way as other types of reports. The only difference is the content of the report.
