Hello,

I've setup the audit beat and it intercepts the commands that have `sudo` in front. however, it does not log the command from normal users and neither for root user.  
so that, if I do `sudo su` there's no log of command, and neither for my user.  
is it possible to enable it? how so?

i've tried this [Log All User's Shell Activity](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/log-all-users-shell-activity/144982) but without luck

any help?
