Read here:

I would not audit "traverse / execute" but write. It will be hard to audit
copying and moving, as these actions look identical to any other file
reading and writing.
There is no good way to prevent a user that can read a file from copying a
file [unless you try to restrict where that user has permission to write
to]. Also, for Microsoft Office files like Word and Excel files, there is
no good way to remove the Delete permission, in which case users can still
delete and move files as well. Your best bet is some kind of file backup
like tape backup that runs at least once every night.
Maybe there is some third party file auditing utility I dont' know about out
there that could help you [somehow I doubt it]. You could try searching
Google.
