How to create use case that would detect when admin password modified/changed?

Hi All,

I need to create a Use Case that would detect Admin user/s changing their own password.

So far I have:

index=XXX EventCode=4724

| where user=src_user AND src_user_category="privileged" AND  user_category="privileged"

not sure how to go around as this is not doing the search I want.

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks all

Please explain what is meant by "not doing the search I want".  What do you want and what do you get?

My WinEventLog doesn't have the user_category and src_user_category fields.  Are you sure yours does?  In the past, I've had to detect admin accounts based on a naming convention.  For example:

index=wineventlog EventCode=4724 user!="*$" user="adm_*"
| where user=src_user
