Ensure No Auditing for 'Audit Policy: Object Access: Other Object Access Events' This subcategory reports other object access-related events such as Task Scheduler jobs and COM+ objects. Events for this subcategory include: - 4671: An application attempted to access a blocked ordinal through the TBS. - 4691: Indirect access to an object was requested. - 4698: A scheduled task was created. - 4699 : A scheduled task was deleted. - 4700 : A scheduled task was enabled. - 4701: A scheduled task was disabled. - 4702 : A scheduled task was updated. - 5888: An object in the COM+ Catalog was modified. - 5889: An object was deleted from the COM+ Catalog. - 5890: An object was added to the COM+ Catalog. Refer to the Microsoft Knowledgebase article "Description of security events in Windows Vista and in Windows Server 2008" for the most recent information about this setting: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947226. 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.
