Overview
Domain expertise for enabling AWS CloudTrail across all regions to capture comprehensive API activity logs and configuring CloudWatch Logs Insights for security monitoring, compliance auditing, and operational analysis.
Set up a multi-region trail
To create a centralized multi-region CloudTrail trail with S3 storage, CloudWatch Logs integration, and log analysis, follow the procedure exactly. See CloudTrail multi-region setup procedure.
Troubleshooting
S3 bucket already exists
Choose a different globally unique name, or add a timestamp or organization identifier.
Permission denied errors
Verify your identity with aws sts get-caller-identity. Ensure your user/role has required actions attached. Do NOT use *FullAccess managed policies.
Trail not logging
Verify IAM role permissions, check S3 bucket policy allows CloudTrail access, and ensure the trail is started with start-logging.
Missing events in CloudWatch
Allow 5-15 minutes for initial log delivery. Verify the CloudWatch Logs role ARN is correct and the log group exists in the same region as the trail.
Opt-in region events not appearing
This is normal — events from opt-in regions may take several hours. Wait up to 24 hours before investigating further.
