Hi everyone, I'm a bit of a newbie administrator, and I have a quick question about Microsoft windows audit logs. Right now I have ticked every audit option in the main GPO, so I get tons of audit objects to trawl through every week. I was reading somewhere that MS Audit logs cycle or something so after 24 hours I have lost some audit objects. Also, I don't really know what I'm looking for in the audits logs anyway... except for maybe checking if some users accounts have been used when they shouldn't have. Anyways, I was wondering what software would be good for managing the audit logs?... I think I read a blog from an MS employee saying someone should use 3rd party software for managing the audit logs instead of the built-in windows thing. Thanks for your help, Davie.
