Audit Other Policy Change Events

Audit Other Policy Change Events contains events about EFS Data Recovery Agent policy changes, changes in Windows Filtering Platform filter, status on Security policy settings updates for local Group Policy settings, Central Access Policy changes, and detailed troubleshooting events for Cryptographic Next Generation (CNG) operations.

Event volume: Low.

Computer Type General Success General Failure Stronger Success Stronger Failure Comments
Domain Controller IF Yes IF Yes IF - We do not recommend Success auditing because of event “5447: A Windows Filtering Platform filter has been changed”—this event generates many times during group policy updates and typically is used for troubleshooting purposes for Windows Filtering Platform filters. But you would still need to enable Success auditing for this subcategory if, for example, you must monitor changes in Boot Configuration Data or Central Access Policies.
We recommend Failure auditing, to detect errors in applied Security settings which came from Group Policy, and failure events related to Cryptographic Next Generation (CNG) functions.
