Find All Windows Event Log Cleared Events

The Windows event log contains masses of valuable information. Using the event log scanning, you can scan for specific events like the event that the Security log was manually cleared. This event should in theory not occur, so an occurrence itself is enough to dig a bit deeper. You can read more about this use case in the Pro Tips #8 blog post.
To scan this event, enabling the scanning of Success event in ConfigurationServer Options is required.
This audit will provide you with a complete overview of all events with event ID 1102. Security log cleared report
