TechNet Webcast: Using Windows Event Logging to Enhance Compliance and Security (Level 200)

Tags:
security standards

Overview The event logs in Microsoft Windows contain crucial information about the system, security, and applications. This information can help to identify and resolve real-time security breaches such as root kit installations. This webcast demonstrates how to use the monitoring and reporting data that can automatically be collected with Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server (ISA), Microsoft SQL Server, and the Windows platform. This data provides with an accurate picture of failed attempts to log on, changes to the status of accounts and privileges, and accounts that have been misused or locked out.
