Event ID 620 – Trusted Domain Information Modified
Event ID | 620 |
Category | Policy Change |
Type | Success Audit |
Event 620 is logged differently based on the OS. In Win2000, the domain controller logs this event when there are trust additions. It does not log if there are removals, and treats both newly trusted domains and previously trusted domains similarly.
In Win2003, this event is logged whenever an existing trusted domain's properties are modified.
This log data provides the following information:
- Domain Name
- Domain ID
- User Name
- Domain
- Logon ID
Why does event ID 620 need to be monitored?
Unplanned changes of the Active Directory domain trust settings warrants immediate investigation, and thus, event ID 620 must be monitored.
