Hello DHLao, You can track user activities on a computer. When you use auditing, you can specify which events are written to the Security log.

Hi , to add in more, you would only be able to query the last auth done by specific AD user. you can query lastlogon which maintains seperate log info on every domain controller and it is advisable to query all the domain controllers in the domain to obtain the information about the user.
