Deciphering Windows Event Logs: 4733

4733: A member was removed from a security-enabled local group

This event can be interpreted as:

"<subjectUserName> removed <memberSid> from group <targetUserName>. This action was performed from <computer>."

Helpful Hints:

To get the username of an account by SID, you can use the following command (note: this works well for local accounts, there may be a better way to do this in AD):

wmic useraccount where sid="S-1-5-21-3696241878-1170446952-3831691710-1002" get name 
Name 
SuperHacker
