Summary
Both Directories and Files can be audited. When auditing is enabled, events that are specified
are written to an event log, which can be viewed in Event Viewer.
It is possible to apply a filter when viewing events to be more selective. Applying auditing
creates an overhead penalty on the server, and can fill the event logs quickly.
