You can specify which SQL events you want to audit at the server level. IDERA SQL Compliance Manager applies these settings to the registered SQL Server instance. These settings are not applied to the hosted databases.

You can configure server audit settings when you register a new SQL Server instance or later as your auditing needs change. For more information about individual SQL events, see Microsoft SQL Server Books Online.
