+
+The 'Audit Directory Service Changes' logging policy must be configured for (Success, Failure).
+Steps to implement the logging policy with Advanced Audit Configuration:
+
+```
+Computer Configuration > 
+Policies > 
+Windows Settings > 
+Security Settings > 
+Advanced Audit Policies Configuration > 
+Audit Policies > 
+DS Access > 
+Audit Directory Service Changes (Success,Failure)
+```
+
+The above policy does not cover User objects, so we need to set up an AuditRule using https://github.com/OTRF/Set-AuditRule.
+As this specifies the msDS-KeyCredentialLink Attribute GUID, it is expected to be low noise.
+
+```
+Set-AuditRule -AdObjectPath 'AD:\\CN=Users,DC=Domain,DC=com' -WellKnownSidType WorldSid -Rights WriteProperty -InheritanceFlags Children -AttributeGUID 5b47d60f-6090-40b2-9f37-2a4de88f3063 -AuditFlags Success
