***Event Description:***
This event generates every time a Notification Package has been loaded by the [Security Account Manager](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc756748(v=ws.10).aspx).
In reality, starting with Windows Vista, a notification package should be interpreted as afs [Password Filter](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms721882(v=vs.85).aspx).
Password Filters are DLLs that are loaded or called when passwords are set or changed.
Each time a system starts, it loads the notification package DLLs from **HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Lsa\\Notification Packages** registry value and performs the initialization sequence for every package.
> **Note**&nbsp;&nbsp;For recommendations, see [Security Monitoring Recommendations](#security-monitoring-recommendations) for this event.
