Features

  • Better Operational Efficiency: Helps you determine your security posture against a standard framework, as well as determine your IT compliance status. With this knowledge, you can meet your compliance initiatives and improve operational efficiency by increasing uptime, using resources more efficiently and improve system knowledge.
  • Improve Visibility: Helps you schedule reports and have them distributed to the appropriate decision-makers. Reports include user information, group memberships, security settings and access permissions (ranging from workstations to Windows servers and Active Directory). This capability allows you to baseline your environment, as well as track changes to security rights and groups, giving them unprecedented visibility into their directory and user activity.
  • Automate Report Distribution: Automate the distribution of important directory and activity information on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. These reports can be saved in a number of formats for sorting and graphical representation.
