Overwriting of Windows Security Event Logs (AZ)

Established Fact

Windows security event logs on the EMS server – which track remote and local access – were restricted to a 20 MB file size, causing them to automatically overwrite. The logs covering the November 3, 2020 election period were purged, destroying the complete audit trail of all system access during the election.
