Windows 7 Security Audit Failure message 6281 & Security Kernel

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium Ver 6.1 Build 7601 SP 1
Toshiba Satellite C655
I received a Windows 7 Security pop-up saying there was a Kernel mismatch and asked if I wanted to proceed. Not thinking - i hit yes. Looking through the Security Audit Log - I found an audit failure with 6281 System Integrity Error. I
am assuming they are related.
Any idea what have I done and what do I need to check/do to recover?
Thanks

Hi,
Please upload us the full error messages here, we need more information to narrow down the cause. Then check into
Event Viewer, see if any other errors logged.
Besides, check to see if there are any devices have new drivers need to update.
Mostly this error is caused by the "Realtek Audio HD driver", please check to see if we have any related devices.
Reference:
Windows 7 freeze after shutdown

Hi Zeeshan,
I have found a hotfix against the same error messages, though it applies to Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, I am not sure if it will work on your machine.
Please refer to this KB article below:
Duplicate triggers are generated incorrectly in scheduled tasks in Windows Vista or in Windows Server 2008

Please feel free to let us know if this hotfix couldn’t help you fix this issue.

Multiple security audit failures a second

A client's SBS 2011 machine is experiencing multiple audit failures a second and we believe it is diminishing the performance of the machine. We can't seem to find the source or how to remedy the issue. It its happening way too fast to be a human trying

Hi Jerry,
Windows logs logon type 3 in most cases when you access a computer from elsewhere on the network. This is usually
related to share folders, printers, IIS and so on.
Would you please let me confirm whether you had installed some third-party applications?
Meanwhile, please refer to Robert’s suggestion in the following similar thread and check if can help you.

Failure - Event 4625
If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Hope this helps.

JAX-WS web service client and Windows integrated Security authentication

I am currently developing a JAX-WS web service client running on WebLogic 10.3.2.0. The client is connecting to exchange web service running on IIS.
Everything works well when EWS is configured with Http basic authentication.
The problems started when I changed the autentication method on EWS from Http basic authentication to Windows integrated Security authentication.
The client is then unable to authenticate to the web service. Every request made to EWS returns with the message : Invalid HTTP server response [401] - Unauthorized.
I tried using an authenticator like this one:
static class RetrieveWSDLAuthenticator extends Authenticator
private String username, password;
public RetrieveWSDLAuthenticator(String user, String pass)
username = user;
password = pass;
@Override
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication()
return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password.toCharArray());
and setting it as the default authenticator :
Authenticator.setDefault(new MyAuthenticator("username", "password"));
but the method getPasswordAuthentication() was not even called.
Is there a way to make a JAX-WS client works with Windows integrated Security ?

WIS is not suppported on WLS JAX-WS. You'll need to use other authentication mechanisms such as http basic (which you tried already), or message-level security such as UNT, or SAML.

Windows phone security on wireless networks

I am a post-doc at large medical center, and requested access to our secure wireless network due to the nature of my work. I was told by our IT support desk analysts that Windows
Phone is not supported at our medical center (at all), because Windows phones are "too insecure to put on our network." Because of this, I either have to get rid of my brand new Windows Phone to get an android or I will never be allowed to have access
to the secure Wi-Fi as necessary for my job. Any thoughts or suggestions? This seems to be a serious limitation of Windows Phone.

Your support desk is outright lying to you. There is no issue with Windows Phone security on wireless networks, they just don't want to support your phone. It might be possible that Windows Phone doesn't support the particular kind of wireless encryption
that your org uses, but I'm pretty sure that was all solved with Windows Phone 8.
In fact, Windows Phone is more secure in some ways because unlike iOS and Android, you cannot override security certificate problems.

I have an iPhone4s. When I install apps, I have to give my Apple password first. That’s okay. The last few apps I tried to download have opened another security window before they will install. The window says, “Security info Required. To help insure the security of your Apple ID we require additional information” When I select okay, the Apple ID Password window opens and asks for my Apple password a second time.
It doesn't happen with every app and I’m concerned that these apps may be trying to collent my password. Is Apple really doing a double check on my password?

See http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57413072-37/apple-ratchets-up-app-store-securi ty/ and http://www.macrumors.com/2012/04/12/apple-enhancing-apple-id-safety-by-enforcing -security-question-requirements/.

How to simplify the Window AD Security admin?

Does anyone use window AD security? We use window AD, so we created group like BOE report writer, BOE admin. I also created application group, like Application webi. Application desktop, etc., The BOE report writer is member of Application WEBI, since the window AD group canu2019t create the subgroup. However, I also have these Business function groups, for example, the Executive User that can access particular universes and reports. How to simplify to tie to these together, so BOE report writer user can assign to different business functional groups besides assigned user one by one?

Hi Sharon,
So in enterprise you will have 2 group types it sounds like from your description.
AD groups that are mapped into the CMC from Active Directory
and Enterprise Groups created in BO CMC.
You can make AD groups members of Enterprise groups but not the other way around.
You can assign permissions to AD groups directly or make the AD group a member of enterprise groups as you stated so they can inherit permissions.
If you are going to assign permissions to AD groups please make sure you are on XIR2 SP2 FP 2.4 as the way the CMS queries AD and updates the graph was fixed in that version to allow the AD plugin to function if something happens on the AD side.
You can assign any group any permission (folders, users, applications, universes, etc)
Is there something more specific you are looking to do?
Also to note: Permissions have been greatly enhanced in XI 3.0 You may be interested in trying this out as well where you can create custom access levels that have access to any combination of access rights in the CMC.
Regards,
Tim

Hi annarepublic78,
As per the above mentioned error, your Win CS6 download was not complete, either it was in process or was interrupted. This is the only reason you see the MasterCollection_CS6_LS16.7z.crdownload. Here .crdownload means the download is in process.
Please try to download it again on the Desktop and please make sure that the download completes successfully(without the .crdownload extension).

Fdm, create app with enabling "Windows Integrated Security"

currently, we need to enter UserID and Password each time we create a new fdm app on the web. we also cannot sign into the Workbench client.
how do we configure the system, so that we can create applications WITH enabling "Windows Integrated Security", so that we can use the same password to sign into the Workbench client.
thanks.

Windows 8 secure boot on P67A-GD55

Hello to everyone
I want to know if MSI has already released a fix that enables to run Windows 8 secure boot on P67A-GD55 Motherboard. I already have the 1.19 version installed which it says it is not compatible with secure boot mode.
There are two BIOS versions 4.1 and 4.2 that I want to know if they enable to use the secure boot mode of Windows 8 on this motherboard, because it already has UEFI but at the same time says it is not compatible.
Thanks,

You have been linked to the latest release which showed up during this topic. You won't break anything if you follow the directions precisely.
Quote from: xmad on 29-January-13, 13:26:10
Full release out today. I posted it at the link below. Follow directions precisely and you must use the forum flash tool.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=164135.msg1214789#msg1214789
If mainboard won't even start or you have stability issues don't consider flashing bios as you'd have a good chance of bricking the system. If the board crashes while flashing you can use it as a paper weight.
Just install one stick of ram and make sure it is stable before trying to flash.

An account failed to log on unknown username or password. Causing Login audit failures

I have a SBS11 Essentials server that is getting audit Failures over and over again. There computer account says it's the SBS11 server it's self. It says unknown user name or bad password. I have checked for scheduled tasks, backup jobs, services and
non of them are using any special user accounts. I have used MS network monitor and can't find anything helpful to lead to the issue. All computers in the network are running Windows 7. The domain functional level is 2008 R2.
I get a the 4768 event ID about a Kerberos event and then just after I get a Event ID 4625 account failure with Logon Type 3. I have includes the events below. I need to figure what is causing the audit failures as my GFI Test Hacker alert is
catching it every morning. Disabling the Test Hacker alert is not a option. I have used Process Explorer also but can't seem to pin it down. I also enabled Kerberos logging.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/262177?wa=wsignin1.0. All event codes state its a unknown or no existing account but how do I stop it from happening?
This is from the System Event log

Well I opened the case for him and he never followed up with Microsoft :-(
It's a kerberos issue, we're told to ignore it. Would you be willing to be patient and stubborn and work with CSS to at least understand what's going on better? I can tell you it's normal with Essentials but not the exact technical reason it's
happening.
Unfortunately TechNet isn't coming back, sorry folks :-(

4265 Audit Failure: NTLM Authentication Issue from constant Outlook Login Prompts

Hello Technet!
Last week I started running into a domain-wide issue where users could authenticate while connected to the domain, but would receive prompts to log in to our external host. The first prompt is for mail.domain.local, which works fine inside the office, and
the second is owa.domain.com, which continually fails.
On the second prompt, the Exchange 2007 server (on Server 2008 R2) reports the following error:

I've gone through quite a few attempted fixes already, all to no effect:
1. I've both added BackChannelHostName to the server's registry, as well as described here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/896861
2. Verified SSL Cert status
3. Internal and External OWA URI is set to owa.domain.com in EWC
4. Set up the IIS7 authentication and SSL settings to their defaults, as described here: http://msexchangeguru.com/2010/10/05/autodiscover/
5. I added a SRV record for autodiscover on our DC to correct an EXPR auth issue: https://acbrownit.wordpress.com/2012/12/20/internal-dns-and-exchange-autodiscover/
Despite all these things, I haven't yet seemed to scratch whatever itch Exchange is having. All of the client Outlooks will get the prompt for owa.domain.com, even though their mail is working because they're in the office or on VPN. For whatever reason,
the Mac Outlook 2011 users cannot authenticate to the mail server at all, so they are the ones hit the hardest by this issue.
Any insight everyone here at TechNet can offer would be appreciated. Every fix and workaround I've looked at has either changed nothing, or pointed to something that was already configured properly. If there are details missing that I could offer to provide
a better idea of the problem, please let me know. Thank you.

Audit failure every 2 minutes on a W2K8 standalone Server in a Workgroup EventID 4625

Hello
By chance I discovered that every 2 minutes there is a login failure on my standalone (Workgroup) W2K8 R2 Server.
The administrator is disabled (login errors also appear when administrator user is enabled).
Could not find any tasks that are running with administrator credentials. It seems to me that it must be from the same machine, as the source IP Address is 127.0.0.1.
Does anyone have an idea?

Kerberos audit failures, ~38-42 events PER MINUTE

We have a server running "Windows Server Standard FE" 64bit SP2 (I know, embarrassing). The issue is that our Security log is getting FLOODED with audit failures from Kerberos Service Ticket Operations. We will see 38 all with the EXACT same time-stamp,
then sometimes the next minute will have another 40, sometimes it's a 5 minute gap, sometimes it's a more random gap but regardless it never waits too long before another huge burst of failures. We actually have the issues on other machines running newer system
(2k3, 2k8) but this one is hands down the most troublesome.
Honestly I might be out of my depth here as I'm really not too keen on Kerberos ticket requests, but any information around this would be greatly appreciated to help me investigate the issue further. These errors haven't actually led to any problems or other
errors, just bug the heck out of me when checking audits.
A Kerberos service ticket was requested.
Account Information:
Account Name: <hostname>$@<domain>.LOCAL
Account Domain: <domain>.LOCAL

Network Information:
Client Address: ::1
Client Port: 0
Additional Information:
Ticket Options: 0x60810010
Ticket Encryption Type: 0xffffffff
Failure Code: 0xe
Transited Services: -
This event is generated every time access is requested to a resource such as a computer or a Windows service. The service name indicates the resource to which access was requested.
This event can be correlated with Windows logon events by comparing the Logon GUID fields in each event. The logon event occurs on the machine that was accessed, which is often a different machine than the domain controller which issued the service ticket.
Ticket options, encryption types, and failure codes are defined in RFC 4120.
