Which log file in the Event Viewer contains information concerning auditing?

The log file that contains information concerning auditing is the Security log. This log is specifically designed to track security-related events, such as successful and failed login attempts, changes to user permissions, and other activities that are critical to maintaining security and auditing compliance.

The information stored in the Security log is essential for system administrators and security professionals who need to monitor access and changes to sensitive data, detect unauthorized access, and investigate potential security breaches. Since auditing is a process aimed at ensuring compliance with security policies and standards, the Security log is the primary source for monitoring these audit trails in a Windows environment.

In contrast, the System log records events related to system components and drivers, while the Application log contains events related to applications running on the system. The Local Users and Groups is actually a management tool used for configuring user accounts and permissions and does not refer to a log file in Event Viewer.
