3.123 - Auditing Access of Global System Objects must be turned off.
Information
This setting prevents the system from setting up a default system access control list for certain system objects, which could create a very large number of security events, filling the security log in Windows and making it difficult to identify actual issues.Solution
Configure the policy value for Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options -> 'Audit- Audit the access of global system objects' to 'Disabled'.See Also
