To track scheduled tasks, you will have to enable auditing of your Active Directory. (See Step 1 of the Native AD Audit Tab).
In the ADAudit Plus console, go to 'Reports' tab and navigate to ' Server Audit Reports' on the left pane. This provides a list of pre-configured reports on process activity within AD.
You can select the 'System Time Changed' report to see if there was any change made in the system time.
You can also create custom reports and export reports in CSV, PDF, XSL, HTML formats.
ADAudit Plus comes bundled with more than 300 predefined reports that makes AD auditing easier. The solution also generates real-time alerts for critical events to help you secure your network from threats and boost your IT security posture. Check out the capabilities of ADAudit Plus here.
