Systems and methods of managing access records of user access to a secure data network include an access record gateway and an access record datastore; the access record gateway being in communication with an access server of the secure data network; and the access record datastore being in communication with the access record gateway. The access record gateway acquires user access information, such as time information; records the user access information in at least one access record; and stores the at least one access record in the access record datastore. The access record gateway also acquires user access activity information, such as user access termination information, and updates previously recorded user access information with the user access activity information. The at least one access record includes a plurality of sub-records, selected from a list including a user information sub-record, a network information sub-record, and a time information sub-record. The system may include a security application in communication with the access record gateway to query for an access record satisfying the security query parameter(s).
