You can audit tracks every action made with Hoop.dev. It provides video recordings of sessions and logging.

Benefits

Faster Debugging: Quickly identify what went wrong in a session with complete visibility into every command and response. Which means there is no need to reconstruct issues from memory or incomplete logs.

Streamlined Compliance: Automatically generate detailed audit trails to support SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI compliance without setting up external log forwarding or managing multiple logging systems.

Improved Onboarding and Knowledge Sharing: Session recordings double as live documentation, helping new team members learn how experienced engineers navigate complex systems.

Zero-Trust Security Enforcement: Maintain full visibility into how access is used. Every action is tied to an authenticated user, with no standing credentials or untracked activity.

Key Features

Complete Session Capture: Includes precise timestamps, user identity with organizational context, and connection metadata for every session.

Full Input/Output Recording: Records every command entered and response returned, with optional high-definition video playback and structured log export.

Searchable Metadata: Sessions are enriched with tags and contextual information for fast filtering, retrieval, and analysis.

Multiple Output Formats: View sessions as videos in the browser or export structured logs for automated processing and reporting.

Information available

Time: start and end time of each session

User: complete user information inside your organization

Connection: the connection used in the session

Input and Output: every command and its output an user has executed

  • Video recording: a video recording of the session
  • Logs: a log of the session

Capture every interaction with full visibility, faster troubleshooting, and built-in compliance.

Hoop.dev’s session recording feature provides a complete, searchable record of user activity across your infrastructure—without disrupting developer workflows.


How it Works

Transparent Proxy Layer: hoop.dev sits between users and infrastructure, capturing all session data without changing your existing tools or workflows.

Automatic Recording: Session recording starts the moment a user connects through hoop.dev. There’s no manual setup or toggling required.

Structured Storage and Search: Recorded sessions are stored securely with rich metadata, making it easy to search by user, resource, or timeframe.

Security and Access Controls: Session data is protected by role-based access controls and integrated into your existing permission model.


Getting Started

  1. Connect Resources: Add your databases, Kubernetes clusters, or infrastructure endpoints to hoop.dev using the appropriate connection strings and credentials.
  2. Enable Session Recording: Turn on session recording globally or per-connection. Use granular policies to define what gets recorded and for how long.
  3. Invite Team Members: Add users and assign access permissions. All activity is automatically tracked and tied to each individual.
  4. Use Existing Workflows: Developers can continue using their preferred CLI or web interface. hoop.dev captures sessions in the background—no workflow changes needed.

Session recording turns everyday infrastructure access into a rich source of insight, accountability, and operational efficiency.

For reliability engineering, security, and compliance teams, it’s a simple way to ensure visibility without slowing anyone down.
