Enabling CloudTrail

To enable CloudTrail in your account using the CloudTrail console, follow the instructions provided in Creating a trail with the CloudTrail console in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide. CloudTrail will log the access to S3 buckets by recording the IAM role that accessed it. This can be linked back to an instance ID, which is linked to a project or user.
