Hi again @christianubeda,

That usually happens when you have a defined eventtype that is not shared globally. Go ahead into the settings and change the "wineventlog_security" eventtype permissions to global, you can find the steps here :https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.6/Knowledge/Defineeventtypes.

You can also simply disable it if you're not using it !

Cheers,
David
