How do I view older Windows Security Logs? Seems like the logs only show from 1/11/15, but I need to view logs before that date.

Thanks. I am trying to collect the log from a remote system to forward to my security team. What is the best approach to do this? Currently I am using event viewer MMC and connecting to the remote computer, and doing a saved log file as, but it is hosing my computer.
