Audit Certification Services

Audit Certification Services determines whether the operating system generates events when Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) operations are performed.

Examples of AD CS operations include:

  • AD CS starts, shuts down, is backed up, or is restored.

  • Certificate revocation list (CRL)-related tasks are performed.

  • Certificates are requested, issued, or revoked.

  • Certificate manager settings for AD CS are changed.

  • The configuration and properties of the certification authority (CA) are changed.

  • AD CS templates are modified.

  • Certificates are imported.

  • A CA certificate is published to Active Directory Domain Services.

  • Security permissions for AD CS role services are modified.

  • Keys are archived, imported, or retrieved.

  • The OCSP Responder Service is started or stopped.

Monitoring these operational events is important to ensure that AD CS role services are functioning properly.

Event volume: Low to medium on servers that provide AD CS role services.

Role-specific subcategories are outside the scope of this document.
