Auditing Web Services

Windows Server 2012 auditing can be applied to web and FTP sites to document attempts (successful and unsuccessful) to log on, gain unauthorized access to service accounts, modify or delete files, and execute restricted commands. These events can be viewed through Event Viewer. It’s also important to monitor IIS logs in conjunction with audited events to determine how, when, and if external users are trying to gain unauthorized access.
