Audit Authentication Policy Change

Audit Authentication Policy Change determines whether the operating system generates audit events when changes are made to authentication policy.

Changes made to authentication policy include:

Creation, modification, and removal of forest and domain trusts.
Changes to Kerberos policy under Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Account Policies\Kerberos Policy.
When any of the following user logon rights is granted to a user or group:
- Access this computer from the network
- Allow logon locally
- Allow logon through Remote Desktop
- Logon as a batch job
- Logon as a service
Namespace collision, such as when an added trust collides with an existing namespace name.

This setting is useful for tracking changes in domain-level and forest-level trust and privileges that are granted to user accounts or groups.
