Introduction

Auditing gives you insight into the Exchange topology and can help you troubleshoot issues and document changes in the Exchange environment. This document describes how to configure object auditing in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) and Active Directory to log events when a user or administrator creates, deletes, or changes an Exchange system object. Use Active Directory object auditing together with the Mailbox Access Auditing feature in Exchange 2007 Service Pack 2 (SP2) to audit the Exchange environment.

Auditing of Exchange Server 2007 can be implemented on both Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2003. However, we do not recommend that you implement auditing on Windows Server 2003. Windows Server 2008 provides a much more robust platform for auditing and is the preferred platform on which to deploy auditing features.

To audit the Exchange environment, you use the audit features that are included in AD DS or Active Directory. Most configuration data for Exchange is stored in AD DS or Active Directory, and the auditing information is stored in the System Access-Control List (SACL) for each object. After you enable auditing in AD DS or Active Directory, you can configure the audit of specific Active Directory objects for Exchange Server.

Mailbox Access Auditing is a new feature in Exchange 2007 SP2 for the Microsoft Exchange Information Store process. When this feature is enabled, events can be logged to a new Exchange Auditing event log whenever users or processes access information in mailboxes.

To audit Exchange, you must audit the following items:

  • Active Directory objects in the Configuration and Domain Naming contexts

  • Access to mailboxes in each mailbox store

  • The local Exchange server

Auditing for each of these items is enabled in a unique location, and each location includes a selection of Exchange-related tasks that you can audit.

importantImportant :
Auditing can be implemented in a Windows Server 2003-based environment. However, the Windows Server 2003 event subsystem has some performance limitations. We recommend that you move to Windows Server 2008 to gain the performance benefits of the newer event subsystem.

Overview of the Exchange 2007 Auditing Process

Enabling auditing in an Exchange environment is an important step to help document configuration changes and help you troubleshoot complex problems in an environment.

Proactively enabling auditing before a major incident occurs in the Exchange environment can help save time and money and can help maintain business continuity while an investigation is conducted. Active Directory object auditing for Exchange lets you track what occurs with Exchange Server. It can be used to track deletions, creations, or modifications of any object in the Exchange organization. Active Directory object auditing can also collect information about logons and logoffs, permission use, and much more. Any time that an action that you have configured for auditing occurs, the action is written to the system’s Security log, which can be accessed by using Event Viewer.

AD DS and Active Directory contain most of the configuration data that is used by Exchange in its typical runtime operations. Depending on the services that the company provides, a specific level of certification may have to be met. Changes to Active Directory installations may have to be monitored to meet certain regulatory requirements, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, SAS 70 Type II, HIPAA, eDiscovery, FISMA, or FIPS. This white paper does not provide guidance to meet the requirements of such regulations. Follow the applicable regulations that require a level of auditing to detect changes or access to specific objects in the environment.

importantImportant :
Before you apply your auditing plan, make sure that you obtain approval from your corporate council. You must make sure that your plan meets the requirements of the regulations that apply for your business.

Notes

The log files that are created by auditing cannot be used to prove that a specific person has done something wrong. The log files can only be used to determine whether something is not right and whether it requires additional investigation.

Developing and implementing an auditing plan for Exchange 2007 requires an analysis of your auditing requirements and an evaluation of the available features of your infrastructure. This information is necessary to accurately estimate the total cost of implementing your plan. To build a comprehensive audit of the Exchange environment, you must enable and configure many parts of the auditing solution. Used together, these parts provide a complete audit of Exchange. To implement auditing for Exchange Server 2007, you must configure the following:

  • Policy Change auditing. Policy Change auditing is configured by using the Audit Policy Change security setting. Use this security setting to determine whether an incident is audited when user rights assignment policies, audit policies, or trust policies are changed.

  • Directory Service auditing. Directory Service auditing is controlled by one of the following policy settings:

    • Directory Service Access for Windows Server 2003

    • Directory Service Changes for Windows Server 2008

    Directory Service Changes is a new audit policy subcategory in Windows Server 2008 AD DS that provides more detail about what objects were changed. If this security setting is enabled, and changes are made to the directory objects that are set for auditing, the changes are logged in the Security log.

  • Baseline Auditing for Exchange Configuration Objects. The Baseline Auditing for Exchange Configuration Objects settings on Windows Server 2008 generate most of the events for changed and deleted objects in the Exchange Configuration Container in AD DS. After this configuration is completed, access to the selected objects is logged in the Security log.

  • Auditing for specific Active Directory objects. After you enable auditing for the Exchange configuration changes in AD DS or Active Directory, you can apply similar auditing for specific objects, such as users, organizational units, or groups. For example, user auditing enables administrators to capture permission changes that are made at a mailbox level.

  • The Exchange Group Policy object. You must create an Exchange Group Policy object to store the audit settings. In an Active Directory environment, you assign Group Policy settings by linking Group Policy objects (GPOs) to sites, domains, or organizational units (OUs). To help deploy Group Policy auditing of Exchange servers, create an OU to house the Exchange servers. You can then create a GPO and link this object to the Exchange Server OU. This helps ensure that only Exchange servers in the domain are affected by the Group Policy settings.

  • Auditing of Exchange Server registry keys. These settings log when local changes occur that may affect how Exchange operates.

  • Mailbox Access Auditing. These settings help administrators track access to messages and folders in a user's mailbox.

Comparing Auditing on Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2003

On Windows Server 2003, Directory Service Access auditing is the only mechanism by which to track modifications to Active Directory objects. This logging mechanism is not very robust because Windows Server 2003 logs only the attribute that changed. Windows does not tell you what the attribute value was set to before and after the change.

Beginning with Windows Server 2008, audit policies changed so that you can now configure Granular Audit Policies. The Granular Audit Policies feature lets you audit object changes at a more detailed level; it can tell you the specific attribute values that were changed and what the values were before and after the change. For more information about how to use Group Policy settings to deploy Granular Audit Policies, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 921469, How to use Group Policy to configure detailed security auditing settings for Windows Vista-based and Windows Server 2008-based computers in a Windows Server 2008 domain, in a Windows Server 2003 domain, or in a Windows 2000 domain.

Windows Server 2003 contains the following audit policy categories:

  • Audit account logon events

  • Audit account management

  • Audit directory service access

  • Audit logon events

  • Audit object access

  • Audit policy change

  • Audit privilege use

  • Audit process tracking

  • Audit system events

Windows Server 2008 introduces subcategories that increase the number of audit policies to a total of 50. These new subcategories cannot be configured directly by using the Local Group Policy Editor; the subcategories have to be changed by using the Auditpol.exe command, which is included with the operating system. For more information, see Security Auditing.

Windows Server 2008 has the following Directory Service Access Granular Audit Policy subcategories:

  • Directory Service Changes

  • Directory Service Replication

  • Detailed Directory Service Replication

  • Directory Service Access

By default, any policy change that is made for a Directory Service Access policy on Windows Server 2003-based domain controllers will automatically overwrite all subcategory policies on Windows 2008-based domain controllers. To prevent this behavior, you must set the Audit: Force audit policy subcategory settings (Windows Vista or later) to override audit policy category settings policy to prevent the legacy domain policy from overwriting the subcategory audit policies. For example, if Windows Server 2003 Directory Service Access auditing is already enabled, and you introduce new Windows Server 2008-based domain controllers in the environment, any of the Windows Server 2003 higher-level categories that are configured will automatically overwrite all Granular Audit Policy subcategories. This may add auditing that may not be desired in your environment. For more information about how to change this setting, see Knowledge Base article 921469, How to use Group Policy to configure detailed security auditing settings for Windows Vista-based and Windows Server 2008-based computers in a Windows Server 2008 domain, in a Windows Server 2003 domain, or in a Windows 2000 domain.

To improve secure event management and provide a new user interface to help manage event log information, Windows Server 2008 uses the Windows Eventing 6.0 subsystem. Windows Eventing 6.0 also lets you create tasks and associate them with specific events that may occur. This new architecture helps resolve some performance and scalability issues that might occur on Windows Server 2003. Windows Eventing 6.0 also provides a new structured XML representation of the data, which can be used by other technologies. There is also a feature in Windows Eventing 6.0 that lets you set up a collector in which you can forward events to a single computer for ease of viewing.

Notes

The collector feature works well in small environments. However, for large corporations, you should use the Audit Collection Services (ACS) features of Microsoft System Center Operations Manager. For more information, see "Auditing Changes Throughout the Organization" later in this document.

To correctly deploy auditing in an Exchange environment, you must understand the relationship between audit policy and SACLs so that the correct events are captured for your tracking needs. An audit policy is defined either locally or by using a Group Policy object (GPO). The SACL is updated on specific objects that you have to audit. If an audit policy is deployed and if an associated SACL is not present on the object or objects, no events will be logged. Therefore, you must make sure that both the audit policy and the SACL are deployed successfully by following the procedures in this white paper.

Mailbox Access Auditing in Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 2

Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 2 (SP2) includes the new Mailbox Access Auditing feature. Mailbox Access Auditing is enabled by a set of Diagnostics Logging categories for the Microsoft Exchange IS resource. Each category corresponds to a different type of resource access. Each category can be enabled independently. This lets an administrator choose the level of information (and the corresponding load from recording it) that is appropriate for the particular organization.

  • The Folder Access category lets you log events that correspond to opening folders, such as the Inbox, Outbox, or Sent Items folders.

  • The Message Access category lets you log events that correspond to opening messages.

  • The Extended Send As category lets you log events that correspond to sending a message as a mailbox-enabled user.

  • The Extended Send On Behalf Of category lets you log events that correspond to sending a message on behalf of a mailbox-enabled user.

Each category supports logging levels from zero (not enabled) to five (maximum logging). Higher logging levels increase the amount and detail of logged data.

Comparing Mailbox Access Auditing to Windows Auditing

The Microsoft Exchange Information Store service supports Windows NT audit events based on system policy. These events reflect each instance of an opened object and are recorded in the Security log. This type of logging is the highest auditing level that is available in Windows and offers extensive records of object access. The goal of Mailbox Access Auditing is not to replace Windows auditing. Windows auditing focuses on "object open" and "object close" events. Mailbox Access Auditing ignores certain object events in favor of events that represent real user data that is being accessed.

For example, with Windows auditing, the primary focus is that of "Logons to Mailbox." In Exchange, a logon event is the act of binding to data that then allows the client to try to open folders. The logon object itself does not grant access to specific data. Therefore, it represents a false focal point for auditing.

Mailbox Access Auditing focuses on events that indicate that a client has accessed messaging data or exercised rights that affect messaging data. For example, Mailbox Access Auditing focuses on events that indicate the following:

  • By opening a folder, the client gains access to actual data.

  • By opening a message, the client gains access to actual data.

Logging on to a mailbox is an implicit operation to gain access to the mailbox folder. Mailbox Access Auditing lets you ignore operations that occur below the Interpersonal Message (IPM) subtree, such as free/busy cache lookup operations. Also, Mailbox Access Auditing ignores access by Exchange system processes. Mailbox Access Auditing can also log only a particular class or classes of access. The tradeoffs between Windows auditing and Mailbox Access Auditing are in the configuration process. Windows auditing can be set by policy. Mailbox Access Auditing is controlled by diagnostic categories for the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service.

importantImportant :
Mailbox Access Auditing does not audit message deletions, only successful message access.

How to Configure Directory Service Access Auditing and Policy Change Auditing on Windows Server 2008

On Windows Server 2008, the Audit Policy Change security setting determines whether event types such as every change to user rights assignment policies, audit policies, or trust policies is audited. When this policy setting is defined, you can specify whether to audit successes or failures of an event type. If you make no selection, the event type is not audited at all. Success audits generate an audit entry when a change to user rights assignment policies, audit policies, or trust policies is successful. Failure audits generate an audit entry when a change to user rights assignment policies, audit policies, or trust policies fails. Before you change these settings, determine what the current settings are by using the Auditpol command to view the Audit Policy Change and Directory Service Changes security settings. If the Audit Policy Change security setting is not enabled, use the Auditpol command to enable the security setting. After the Audit Policy Change security setting is set, an event that resembles the following is logged in the Security log on the domain controller where the change was made:

Log Name:

Directory Service Changes is a new audit policy subcategory on Windows Server 2008. If this security setting is enabled, and changes are made to objects that an administrator has set up for auditing, the changes to the directory are logged in the Security log. Only successful changes are logged; failures to change the directory are not logged. The event includes the previous and current values for the changed objects. Events are logged when an object is created, deleted, modified, or moved.

When you enable Directory Service Changes auditing, Directory Service changes are categorized according to the type of change that occurs. The following table describes how the changes are categorized.

Event ID Type of Change Description

5136

Modify

A successful modification to an attribute of an object was made.

5137

Create

An object was created.

5138

Undelete

An object was deleted and then restored.

5139

Move

An object was moved.

By default, the Directory Service Access audit policy is enabled on Windows Server 2008. However, this audit policy does not provide the granularity that is needed to implement successful and meaningful auditing of objects in AD DS. The Directory Service Changes audit policy provides the granularity that Directory Service Access auditing cannot provide.

For more information about audit policy settings, see Knowledge Base article 921469, How to use Group Policy to configure detailed security auditing settings for Windows Vista-based and Windows Server 2008-based computers in a Windows Server 2008 domain, in a Windows Server 2003 domain, or in a Windows 2000 domain.

If you have Windows Server 2003-based domain controllers in the organization, see "How to Configure Directory Service Access Auditing and Policy Change Auditing on Windows Server 2003" in this document.

How to Configure Directory Service Access Auditing and Policy Change Auditing on Windows Server 2003

On Windows Server 2003, Directory Service Access auditing is the only mechanism by which to track modifications to Active Directory objects.

Before You Begin

In an environment that is running Windows Server 2003-based domain controllers, you must install the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) before you can complete these procedures. To obtain the GPMC, see Group Policy Management Console with Service Pack 1. By default, the GPMC is installed when you install Windows Server 2008.

To perform this procedure, the account that you use must be delegated membership in the Domain Administrators group.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Considérations relatives aux autorisations.

Procedure

To configure Directory Service Access auditing and Policy Change auditing on Windows Server 2003

  1. Start Group Policy Management.

  2. In the GPMC tree, expand the forest and domain in which you want to enable policy change auditing, and then click the Domain Controllers OU.

  3. Right-click Default Domain Controllers Policy, and then click Edit.

  4. In the navigation tree, expand Computer Configuration, Windows Settings, Security Settings, and Local Policies, and then click Audit Policy.

  5. In the right pane, double-click Audit directory services access.

  6. In the Audit these attempts area, click to select the Success and the Failure check boxes.

  7. Click Apply, and then click OK.

  8. In the right pane, double-click Audit policy change.

  9. In the Audit these attempts area, click to select the Success and the Failure check boxes.

  10. Click Apply, and then click OK.

  11. Close Group Policy Management.

How to Enable Baseline Auditing for Exchange Configuration Objects

The Baseline Auditing for Exchange Configuration Objects audit settings generate most of the events for changed and deleted objects in the Exchange Configuration Container in AD DS. These audit settings require that inheritance is set correctly for every configuration object under the Services/Microsoft Exchange container. To verify that permissions inheritance is set for all Exchange Configuration objects, run the Exchange Best Practices Analyzer tool, and then select the Permissions check option. If the inherited permissions option is unchecked for any configuration object, an error message is logged to notify you, and the setting can then be corrected.

If Baseline Auditing for Exchange Configuration Objects is enabled, and a change is made to objects under the Exchange Configuration container, an event is logged in the Security log on a domain controller. Note that the auditing events are only logged on the domain controller for the domain where the change is made. For example, if a modification is made on a Client Access server to the ExternalURL on an Exchange Web Services (EWS) virtual directory, you will see an entry that resembles the following in a domain controller's Security log:

How to Create an Exchange Group Policy Object to Store Audit Settings for the Exchange Servers OU

In an Active Directory environment, you assign Group Policy settings by linking Group Policy objects (GPOs) to sites, domains, or organizational units (OUs). To help deploy Group Policy Auditing of Exchange servers, create an OU to house the Exchange servers. You can then create a GPO and link this object to the Exchange Server OU. This helps make sure that only Exchange servers in the domain are affected by the Group Policy settings.

Before You Begin

To perform this procedure, the account you use must be delegated membership in the Domain Administrators group.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Considérations relatives aux autorisations.

Procedure

To create an OU to house the Exchange servers

  1. Start Active Directory Users and Computers.

  2. Right-click <Domain>.com, point to New, and then click Organizational Unit.

  3. In New Object - Organizational Unit, type Exchange Servers, and then click OK.

  4. Move each of the Exchange Server computer objects into the new Exchange Servers OU.

To create a GPO for Exchange auditing

  1. Start Group Policy Management.

  2. In the GPMC tree, expand the forest and domain in which you want to create a Group Policy object.

  3. Right-click Group Policy Objects, and then click New.

  4. In the New GPO dialog box, type Exchange Server Audit Policy to name the new GPO, and then click OK.

To import policy settings for the GPO

  1. Right-Click Exchange Server Audit Policy, and then click Import Settings.

  2. Follow the instructions in the Import Settings Wizard.

How to Use a Security Template to Implement Auditing of Exchange Server Registry Keys

To log events for any changes to Exchange configuration registry keys, enable auditing of Exchange-related registry keys. To make this easier to deploy across multiple Exchange servers, create a security template by using the code that is provided in "Appendix A: INF File for a Security Template" later in this white paper.

Use Group Policy settings to apply the security template to the Exchange server OU that you created in the "How to Create an Exchange Group Policy Object to Store Audit Settings for the Exchange Servers OU" section of this white paper. Follow the steps that apply to the specific operating system that is running Exchange 2007.

Before You Begin

To perform this procedure, the account you use must be delegated membership in the Domain Administrators group.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Considérations relatives aux autorisations.

Procedure

To complete this procedure, create a security template file by using the text that is provided in "Appendix A: INF File for a Security Template." Copy the text to a file in Notepad, and then save the file as an .inf file. For example, name the file Exchange 2007 – E2K7_Reg_Audit.inf.

To create the security template file

  1. Start Notepad.

  2. Copy the text from Appendix A into the Notepad file.

  3. On the File menu, click Save As.

  4. Name the file Exchange 2007 – E2K7_Reg_Audit.inf, and then save it.

How to Use Sample Code to Search the Security Log

After you have configured auditing, you need a way to capture and report an audited event. Because the audited events appear in the Security log, you can use code to search the log for these events.

The sample code in this section uses Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) to search the Security log and retrieve event ID 566 when it contains "msExch" in the event description. To monitor Windows Server 2008 Directory Service Change events, change the EventCode from 566 to 5136.

This sample code was generated using Scriptomatic2 and then modified. To obtain this tool, see Scriptomatic 2.0: Readme. For information about how to use the Scriptomatic tool, see the Readme file that is included with the download.

You can also use Eventcombmt, which is included in the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit, to parse the event logs. For more information about how to use the Eventcombmt tool, see the Help file that is included with the tool. To obtain Eventcombmt, download the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools.

Before You Begin

To perform this procedure, the account you use must be delegated membership in the Domain Administrators group.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Considérations relatives aux autorisations.

Procedure

To use sample code to search the Security log

  1. Start Notepad or any other text editor.

  2. Paste the sample code shown below into the text editor.

  3. Modify the line that starts with "arrComputers" to use the names of domain controllers in your organization. Ensure that each domain controller name is in quotation marks. If there are multiple domain contollers, the names must be separated by a comma.

  4. To monitor Windows Server 2008 Directory Service Change events, change the EventCode from 566 to 5136.

  5. Save the file as a plain text file by using a name such as ExAudit.vbs.

How to Audit Administrative Access to Mailbox Permissions

To audit Administrative access to mailbox permissions, monitor when write access to the msExchMailboxSecurityDescriptor attribute occurs. To do this, you can use Event Viewer to monitor the Security log on the domain controller.

During the monitoring process, make sure that there are no time gaps between the logged events in a log file. A gap between logged events indicates that someone has tried to distort or tamper with the event log and that there is an issue with the administrator account.

If an issue with the administrator account occurs, follow these steps to help secure the administrator account and the Exchange servers:

  • Remove remote terminal access to the servers.

  • Restrict physical access to the servers.

  • Log access to the servers.

  • Use surveillance equipment to monitor access to the server.

Before You Begin

To perform this procedure, the account you use must be delegated membership in the Domain Administrators group.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Considérations relatives aux autorisations.

Procedure

To monitor write access to the msExchMailboxSecurityDescriptor attribute

  1. Start Event Viewer.

  2. Expand Windows Logs, and then click Security.

  3. On the Action menu, click Find.

  4. In the Find what box, type msExchMailboxSecurityDescriptor, and then click Find Next.

Exchange Server Mailbox Access Auditing

The volume of logged audit events in the Exchange Auditing event log is directly related to the load on a server together with the number of user operations of the audited type that are occurring at a given time. Because the Application log is also a source of diagnostic and troubleshooting data, Access auditing does not log events to the Application log. With Exchange 2007 Service Pack 2 (SP2), installing the Mailbox server role on a server creates a new event log. This is the Exchange Auditing event log. By default, the Exchange Auditing event log is located under \Exchange Server\Logs\AuditLogs. On a Windows Server 2008-based computer, this event log is located under Applications and Services Logs\Exchange Auditing. The default file location for this log file is %PROGRAMFILES%\Exchange Server\Logging\Auditlogs. The default access control list (ACL) on the Exchange Auditing log allows the following permissions:

  • Exchange Recipient Administrators - Read and Clear access

  • Exchange Organization Administrators - Read and Clear access

  • Exchange Servers - Read and Write access

  • Local Service - All Access

To change the default ACL list, you have to update the CustomSD value in the registry. Update the CustomSD value to include the group or user that you want to access the Exchange Auditing Event Log. The CustomSD value is located under the following registry subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Exchange Auditing

Note   The ACL that is stored in the CustomSD value is stored in SDDL format. For more information about how to change the permissions on Windows Event Logs and about SDDL formats, view the Event Log topic.

To obtain a user or groups SID value, use the PsGetSid tool from Windows Sysinternals. For more information, visit the PsGetSid v1.43   Web page.

You can also use PowerShell to obtain the SID for a user. To do this, use the following command:

$objUser = New-Object System.Security.Principal.NTAccount("Exchange Organization Administrators")

$strSID = $objUser.Translate([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier])

$strSID.Value

Access Auditing by Event Log Level

For events that represent access by one user to another user's mailbox, the following general guidelines describe which events are logged at each diagnostic logging level:

  • At logging level zero (0), nothing is logged.

  • At logging level one (1), only actions for which the acting user invoked administrative rights are logged.

  • At logging level two (2) and four (4), only access from one mailbox-enabled user to another mailbox is logged.

  • At logging level three (3) and five (5), access from any user to any mailbox is logged.

Common Audit Event Information

Auditing events that reflect actions that are based on a user's logon expose a common set of information. Extended client data is available only when the program supports sending extended client data. Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 and later versions of Outlook send extended client data.

Folder Access Auditing

Folder Access events indicate the successful opening of a folder in a mailbox. Folder Access auditing provides different events at different auditing levels. This lets you select the appropriate logging level for your auditing requirements. The following list describes the events that are logged at each logging level:

  • At level zero (0) nothing is logged. At this logging level, no events are logged in response to folder access.

  • At level one (1) only folder access using Administrative rights is logged.

  • At logging level two (2) and four (4) only folder access by one mailbox-enabled user to another mailbox-enabled user is logged.

  • At logging level three (3) and five (5) access to folders by any user is logged.

Basic Events Logging and All Events Logging

The mailbox folder hierarchy consists of a non-Interpersonal Message (IPM) subtree and an IPM subtree. The non-IPM subtree houses folders for application use, such as search folders. The IPM subtree houses folders, such as the Inbox or Sent Items folders, that are viewed and used by users. Basic events represent typical access to the folders that the user sees. These folders are generally defined as "mail folders." Access to a folder is logged at the basic level if the folder is a child folder of the IPM subtree. All event logging includes the folders that are not visible to the user, such as the mailbox root folder and non-IPM subtree folders. Administrators who want to audit access to "mail folders," such as the Inbox, Sent Items, or Drafts folders, do not have to enable higher level event logging. The following table shows the events that are logged at each logging level for the Folder Access category.

Bypass Auditing Rights

Applications that log on to multiple user mailboxes as trusted service accounts generate a greater load for auditing. This is because each mailbox access operation may be logged.

In Exchange 2007 Service Pack 2 (SP2), a new extended right is added to the schema. This is the Bypass Auditing right. The Bypass Auditing right prevents logging of actions by the user account to which the right is granted. Therefore, you should not grant the Bypass Auditing right to users who you want to audit.

noteRemarque :
By default, Windows grants the Domain Administrators group all extended rights. A domain administrator should not be mail-enabled if you have to audit all mailbox access. To permit the audit of Domain Administrators, you can deny the Bypass Auditing right at the Exchange Organization level. This allows the audit of Domain Administrator accounts that are mail enabled. For example, to deny the bypass auditing right for the Domain Admins Group, run the following command from the Exchange Management Shell:
Add-ADPermission -Identity "CN=Contoso,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=Contoso,DC=com" -User "Domain\Domain Admins" -AccessRights ExtendedRight -ExtendedRights Ms-Exch-Store-Bypass-Access-Auditing -Deny:$true

You can use the Add-ADPermission cmdlet to grant the appropriate right for each mailbox database to bypass auditing for specific service accounts.

Before You Begin

To perform this procedure, the account you use must be delegated membership in the Domain Administrators group.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Considérations relatives aux autorisations.

Procedure

To grant the Example\ServiceAccount the Bypass Access Auditing right

  • Run the following command from the Exchange Management Shell:

    get-mailboxdatabase -Identity "Server01\StorageGroup01\MailboxDatabase01" | Add-ADPermission -User example\ServiceAccount -ExtendedRights ms-Exch-Store-Bypass-Access-Auditing -InheritanceType All
    

For detailed syntax and parameter information, see the Add-ADPermission topic.

Choosing an Auditing Strategy

Auditing mailbox access in Exchange is a complex process that depends on the intended use of the information, the organization's particular auditing requirements, the applications that are in use, and the level of administrator trust.

Windows NT Security Auditing is the best solution for organizations that have the highest level of auditing requirements. This form of auditing logs access to all objects by all users and stores the logged information in the Security log.

Exchange Access auditing is appropriate for organizations that do not require Windows Auditing security. Exchange Access auditing is appropriate for organizations that want to audit the following:

  • Only administrators who exercise Administrator rights to open mailboxes.

  • Only cases in which one user opens another user's mailbox.

  • Only cases in which the accessed resource is located in the IPM subtree.

Auditing Administrator access using administrator rights

At diagnostic logging level one (1), all categories log only events in which the acting users exercise administrative rights to access a mailbox. Be aware that, by default, Exchange administrators can modify the diagnostic logging levels or clear the Exchange Access Auditing event log. Also, Exchange administrators may grant the Bypass Auditing right. Organizations that want to audit only Exchange administrators must implement a split permissions model to prevent the Exchange administrators from modifying logging levels and security descriptors or from clearing the event log.

Auditing Only Access from One Mailbox to Another

At logging level two (2) and four (4), folder auditing and message access auditing log events when one mail-enabled user opens another mailbox-enabled user's folder or message. This logging level does not detect all types of shared mailbox access. Shared mailboxes and resource mailboxes are associated with disabled user accounts. Additional users are then granted access to the mailbox. If the additional users are not mailbox-enabled, access to the shared mailbox or resource mailbox is not logged at diagnostic level two (2) or four (4).

Auditing Basic Events Versus All Events

At diagnostic level two (2) and three (3), Folder Access auditing logs Basic events or All events. Basic events only include folders that are subfolders of the IPM subtree or folders that are second rank or higher subfolders of the non-IPM subtree (for applications that cache data in these locations). Enabling higher diagnostic levels means that more events will be logged. This additional logging increases the load on the server. Also, the increased logging level could log false positive events, such as free/busy cache lookup operations. Free/busy cache lookup operations access the root of the mailbox. These are non-malicious lookup operations.

To decide whether an organization has to audit Basic or extended events requires knowing what applications the organization has deployed and where sensitive user data is stored. If an application stores sensitive user data in an immediate child folder of the non-IPM subtree, only All events (diagnostic level four or five) logging will log access to the particular folders.

Retour au début

Limitations of Access Auditing

Extended client information

Client programs that do not send the extended client information block generate auditing events that do not populate the client information. These are versions of Outlook that are earlier than Outlook 2003.

Folder Contents Tables

Message Access auditing cannot detect all the information that is retrieved from a mailbox. This is because access to the folder contents table, which is a summary table of commonly used message properties, does not require the user to open a message. The message subject, recipient information, and many basic message properties are part of the message folder table. This information may be read without opening a message and, therefore, without generating a message access event.

Security Considerations

When an organization selects Access auditing for its auditing requirements, a number of security scenarios must be considered to evaluate the final cost of fully securing access to the audit logs and protecting the log content.

Bypass Auditing

If a user is granted the Bypass Auditing extended right, the user is not audited. We recommend that you monitor Active Directory ACLs to verify that a user who has Write Security Descriptor access does not grant themselves the Bypass Auditing right.

Domain Administrators

Windows grants Domain Administrators all extended rights. A domain administrator account should not be mail-enabled if all mailbox access must be audited

Diagnostic Logging Changes

Because the diagnostic logging levels control the events that are logged to the Exchange Auditing event log, changing the diagnostic logging level for particular categories may give you unexpected results. For example, certain expected events may no longer be logged. Also, because the Store.exe process cannot identify which user changed the logging levels or even whether the logging levels were changed from an earlier session, the Store.exe process cannot identify changes to the auditing configuration.

Local Administrators

The Exchange Auditing event log contains a record of audited events, and the Event Viewer has an ACL that prevents typical users from clearing the event log. If a local administrator took ownership of the appropriate registry key, reset the CustomSD value, and then restarted the server, the administrator could clear the Exchange Auditing event log.

Performance Considerations

The Exchange Auditing event log may be a high traffic event log, depending on the server configuration and user actions. Therefore, we recommend that the Exchange Auditing event log be located on a dedicated hard disk drive that has sufficient space and that can support fast write operations.

How to Configure Automatic Archiving of Exchange Auditing Events

Windows Server 2008 can automatically archive an event log when the maximum event log size is reached. This Windows Server 2008 event log setting is named Archive the log when full, do not overwrite events. By default, this setting is enabled for the Exchange Auditing event log. When the maximum Exchange Auditing event log size is reached, Windows Server 2008 closes the current log file and archives the log file to the folder in which the Exchange Auditing event log is located. You can see the archived log files under Saved Logs in Event Viewer.

importantImportant :
We do not recommend that you store the auditing logs on the same logical drives as the database and transaction log files. If available hard disk drive space is low, and the auditing logs consume all available disk space, the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service will dismount the databases because of insufficient disk drive space.

The format of the archive log file is as follows:

Archive-<Exchange Auditing Log file name>-<datetime>.evtx

For example, if the path to the Exchange Auditing log file name is D:\ExchangeAuditing\ExchangeAuditing.evtx, the file name resembles the following:

Archive-ExchangeAuditing-2009-05-06-12-54-33-725.evtx

When a log file is rolled over, event ID 105 is logged to the System log. This event resembles the following:

Auditing Changes Throughout the Organization

In a large organization, a long term management solution that can archive the audit events to a centralized repository or database may be needed. Audit Collection Services (ACS) is a core feature of Microsoft System Center Operations Manager 2007. ACS provides a mechanism to forward, collect, store, and analyze security event data. Security events are collected and stored in a central Microsoft SQL Server database. An administrator can quickly run a report to help understand changed events that have occurred in an environment. This can help provide a faster resolution to common problems and allow for accountability among employees.

For more information about understanding and deploying ACS, see the following topics:

Retour au début

Things to Consider

In addition to auditing Exchange Server, you may want to consider the following:

  • We recommend that you also use Journaling. Journaling lets you keep a copy of every e-mail message that is sent in or out of your Exchange organization. For more information, see White Paper: Exchange 2007 Transport Journaling.

  • To help prevent misuse of service accounts, make sure that the service accounts you have for applications that need “global administrative rights” over Exchange are set so that no one can log on interactively. For example, Blackberry Enterprise Server should be configured in this manner.

  • Protect your Exchange Server backups. If someone could take a backup tape and restore it off site, they could have access to all the mailboxes on the backup tape.

  • Include a mechanism that can audit your auditing so that you know when someone has modified the audit logs.

  • Make sure that your Exchange administrators use their user accounts for day-to-day e-mail and their Exchange Admin accounts for administration and delegation.

  • To help secure user mailboxes and protect the confidentiality of their contents, make sure that the user who has permissions to a mailbox is also the mailbox owner. To monitor this scenario, generate a report regularly that provides details about the user mailboxes for which permissions have been granted (not pushed out by policy on the accounts).

Third-Party Auditing Tools

There are number of companies that provide tools that can help audit systems and capture data from the event logs. The following companies are among those that offer third-party auditing tools:

Conclusion

Implementing auditing functionality in your Exchange environment can provide useful information about the environment's configuration and usage. Auditing can also help you document configuration changes and troubleshoot complex problems.

The Mailbox Access Auditing feature that is introduced in Exchange 2007 SP2 provides a useful addition to the auditing features that are provided with Windows Server. Mailbox Access Auditing allows logging of events whenever a client has accessed messaging data or exercised rights that affect messaging data.

Auditing features can be implemented in Active Directory on Windows Server 2003-based computers or in AD DS on Windows Server 2008-based computers. Because the auditing functionality that is available on Windows Server 2008 is more robust, Microsoft recommends that customers who require auditing in their Exchange Server environment use Windows Server 2008 to achieve the best results.
