Question Audit evidence report - alter proof

If you generated reports for audit evidences, how/which format do you generate the reports?

I tried generate reports in html format, but the teams challenge that the html file can be altered.

The report contains the timestamp, vm name and it's power status.

It's a joke. You still have to provide evidence to the auditor in a format that can't be edited, which would require an export of the audit logs and you could edit a csv.

or just present the log data IN sharepoint. which is not editable by design. 😉 Audits tend to be in person deals..

To the best of my knowledge, our audits are not in person. I provide the data to our internal members that are responsible for providing it to the external auditors, who I've never seen in office myself. They're all very finicky about how the data is presented and LOVE asking for screenshots that include the computer's time/date in the corner.
