This policy setting allows you to audit attempts to access the kernel, which include mutexes and semaphores. Only kernel objects with a matching system access control list (SACL) generate security audit events. Note: The Audit: Audit the access of global system objects policy setting controls the default SACL of kernel objects. Volume: High if auditing access of global system objects is enabled. Counter Measure: Enable Audit policy settings that support the organizational security policy for all the computers in your organization. Identify the components that you need for an audit policy that enables your organization to hold users accountable for their actions while using organizational resources and enables IT departments to detect unauthorized activity efficiently and then track those events in log files. Potential Impact: If no audit settings are configured, or if audit settings are too lax on the computers in your organization, security incidents might not be detected or not enough evidence will be available for network forensic analysis after security incidents occur. However, if audit settings are too severe, critically important entries in the Security log may be obscured by all of the meaningless entries and computer performance and the available amount of data storage may be seriously affected. Companies that operate in certain regulated industries may have legal obligations to log certain events or activities.
