Description

To improve the monitoring of network access changes and reduce the time it takes to detect suspicious activity, it is advised to create an activity log alert specifically for the “Delete SQL Server Firewall Rule” event. By enabling this alert, you can gain valuable insights into deletions of SQL Server firewall rules. It is important to note that enabling this alert may result in a significant increase in log size, particularly if there are numerous administrative actions performed on a server. However, the enhanced security monitoring provided by the alert outweighs the potential impact on log size.
