AuditLevel Enumeration

Specifies when to audit security events.

Namespace:  System.ServiceModel
Assembly:  System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)

public enum class AuditLevel

Member nameDescription
NoneNo events will be recorded. This is the default.
SuccessOnly successful security-related events will be recorded.
FailureOnly failed security-related events will be recorded.
SuccessOrFailureBoth failed and successful security-related events will be recorded.

When creating a application that requires authentication and/or authorization of the callers, you can specify that events related to security be recorded for either success, failure, or both. The level of auditing is determined by this enumeration.

The location of the audit log is specified by setting the AuditLogLocation property of the ServiceSecurityAuditBehavior class to one of the AuditLogLocation values.

For more information about auditing, see Auditing Security Events.

You can also specify audit behavior using the serviceSecurityAudit element binding.

The following example sets the MessageAUthenticationAuditLevel() and ServiceAuthorizationAuditLevel properties to one of the AuditLevel values.
