Advanced Security Auditing FAQ
The advanced audit policy settings were introduced in Windows Vista and Windows Server
2008. The advanced settings can only be used on computers running Windows 7, Windows
Vista, Windows Server 2008 R2, or Windows Server 2008.
Note
In Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, advanced audit event settings were not
integrated withGroup Policy and could only be deployed by using logon scripts generated
with the Auditpol.exe command-line tool. In Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7, all
auditing capabilities are integrated with Group Policy. This allows administrators to

configure, deploy, and manage these settings in the Group Policy Management Console
(GPMC) or Local Security Policy snap-in for a domain, site, or organizational unit (OU).
