Tons of logon events for veeam one server

Post by Mgamerz »

I've been doing some security checkups and am trying to track down a orphaned service account for something trying to logon from the server veeam one is also running on. I am noticing there is an absolutely huge amount of security events from veeam one for logons. So many so that I can't even fit a full day of logs with the default event log viewer settings. I get 2-3 messages every 2-3 seconds, all the time, and I don't even have veeam one console interface running.

Mainly it is:
- Logon was attempted using explicit credentials
- Account was logged off
- Special privledges assigned

Is there a way this could be cut down? I know this would have to be a technical change on veeam's end as this is not specifically due to veeam but windows logging veeam doing it's thing. Not having 1 full day of logs is annoying - I have a log management program, but it's not as easy to read as windows event viewer (and certainly not as fast).

I am using Veeam ONE 9.5 Update 3 (9.5.0.3801).

I will contact support and see if there is a way to reduce the number of security events that are being generated.
