Windows domain controller Server not reporting win security events in Splunkcloud

We have a Windows Server acting as a Domain Controller, the Splunk forwarder is installed on this server and it forwards to our local onpremise Heavy Forwarder which then uploads to Splunk cloud.

The Windows domain controller server in question is displaying Windows event logs for application and system but not for security. So it is partially working but somehow the security events are not making it to the cloud.

However it was working completely working 100% fine before, and later stopped working. Around the time it stopped working, we added it to msad (for domain controller specific inputs) but did not make any other changes.
