Audit Filtering Platform Policy Change

 

Applies To: Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8

This topic for the IT professional describes the Advanced Security Audit policy setting, Audit Filtering Platform Policy Change, which determines whether the operating system generates audit events for certain IPsec and Windows Filtering Platform actions.

Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) enables independent software vendors (ISVs) to filter and modify TCP/IP packets, monitor or authorize connections, filter Internet Protocol security (IPsec)-protected traffic, and filter remote procedure calls (RPCs).

This security policy setting determines whether the operating system generates audit events for:

• IPsec services status.

• Changes to IPsec settings.

• Status and changes to the Windows Filtering Platform engine and providers.

• IPsec Policy Agent service activities.

Event volume: Low

Default: Not configured

If this policy setting is configured, the following events appear on computers running the supported versions of the Windows operating system as designated in the Applies to list at the beginning of this topic, in addition to Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista.
