RE: Security Logs



One thing about security auditing is that it does not lie. If it says a set
of credentials was used at a specific time, it was.

So, if the user isn't doing it, they must have their password stored
somewhere.
Check for their password to be stored in: Services, Persistent Mapped
Network Drives, Credential Manager (control keymgr.dll) and 3rd party
applications on the source workstation

As for the user who does not work there anymore. Why is his account still
enabled? Disable it. That might also shed some light on what is causing
those audits, (ie saved credentials). One of your users may be unknowingly
using those credentials to access a resource because they are saved somewhere
on the system.
