Auditing in IBM MQ

IBM® MQ can issue event messages to record that unusual activity has taken place.

Here are some examples of auditing in an IBM MQ environment:

An application attempts to open a queue that it is not authorized to open. An instrumentation event message is issued. By inspecting the event message, you discover that this attempt occurred and can decide what action is necessary.
An application attempts to open a channel, but the attempt fails because SSL does not allow the connection. An instrumentation event message is issued. By inspecting the event message, you discover that this attempt occurred and can decide what action is necessary.
