Abstract
A cloud deployment appliance includes a mechanism to enable permitted users to move event records reliably from an internal event log of the appliance to a data store located external to the appliance while ensuring the integrity of event records. The mechanism ensures that the event records are not tampered with in storage or during download. Further, the approach ensures that no event records can be removed from the appliance internal storage before being successfully downloaded to the external data store.
