3. In the section When maximum event log size is reached: select Do not overwrite
events (Clear logs manually).
4. Increase the maximum size of the event log to cover any possible messages.
The smaller the maximum size of the event log, the more often the system
administrator must manually view, archive, and clear the system log.
Auditing information generated by the operating system is recorded in the Security
Log. Logon failures in Image Lab Security Edition are recorded in this log.
During the review process, the log should be examined for attempted breaches of
security, such as a series of failed logon attempts. To avoid the risk of losing data,
the size should be very large and this inspection/archive process should occur daily.
The Audit Policy should be set as follows:
 Audit account logon events — Failure should be checked at a minimum
 Audit account management — both Success and Failure should be
checked
 Audit logon events — Failure should be checked at a minimum
 Audit policy change — both Success and Failure should be checked
