Permission Audit log categories

Question

_{Monday, November 20, 2017 5:50 PM}

When we pull SharePoint audit log reports for "Editing users and permissions", we see the following categories:

Security Group Create
Security Group Member Add
Security Group Member Delete
Security Role Bind Break Inherit
Security Role Bind Inherit
Security Role Bind Update

What do these mean? 
In particular, what does "Security Role Bind Update" mean?

Thank you!

Thank you...yes, have seen this before.

Was hoping for a little deeper explanation, but this will do.

Hi bubberz1,

Per my understanding, the meanings of these events are:

Security Group Create: A group was created.

Security Group Member Add: A member was added to a group.

Security Group Member Delete: A member was removed from a group.

Security Role Bind Break Inherit: The inheriting permissions were broken.

Security Role Bind Inherit: Inherited permissions.

Security Role Bind Update: The permission of a user/group was edited/removed, or a permission was assign to a user/group.

Best regards,

Linda Zhang
