    Would any of these logs still continue to have clear text password. Might be better to consider those as well when considering for audit log. Surely helps to have specific logs files keeping audit and compliance into consideration.

    When will this feature become a reality. WAS and Qradar are both IBM products, however they are not even integrated for logging?
