EventID 1105 - Event log automatic backup

This event indicates that the audit log has automatically backed up.

Note:

The audit log should be saved in a file before deleting. The practice of always saving copies of audit logs is good for catching fraudulent users. A fraudulent user with sufficient privileges can delete the audit log as a way of erasing evidence of tampering with the computer systems and files. Lack of a backed-up audit log will help trace an unauthorized user. Once deleted, an audit log is lost unless a copy was made and saved before deleting.
