Audit Audit Policy Change

Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2

This security policy setting determines whether the operating system generates audit events when changes are made to audit policy, including:

  • Permissions and audit settings on the audit policy object (by using auditpol /set /sd).

  • Changing the system audit policy.

  • Registration and de-registration of security event sources.

  • Changing per-user audit settings.

  • Changing the value of CrashOnAuditFail.

  • Changing audit settings on an object (for example, modifying the system access control list (SACL) for a file or registry key.)

Note

SACL change auditing is performed when a SACL for an object has changed and the Policy Change category is configured. Discretionary access control list (DACL) and owner change auditing is performed when Object Access auditing is configured and the object's SACL is set for auditing of the DACL or owner change.

  • Changes made to the Special Groups list.

Important

Changes to the audit policy are critical security events.
