Security and compliance

Gain visibility into potential security and compliance issues by assessing the current state of your Microsoft environment. Evaluate and report on existing security policies, system configuration settings and privileged access rights to ensure that users have appropriate access. Quest solutions enable you to discover and classify sensitive data across SharePoint and Office 365, such as personally identifiable information (PII) or protected health information (PHI).

Audit all administrator and user activities in real time. Instantly detect who made what changes, when, where and why to AD, Azure AD, Exchange, Office 365, OneDrive for Business, SharePoint, Windows File Servers and more. Get critical change alerts sent to your inbox or mobile device so you can take immediate action against threats. With Quest, you can archive years of event log data with high compression to meet data retention requirements.

Easily prove compliance throughout the year. Quest auditing solutions deliver out-of-the-box reports for achieving and proving compliance — both internally and with industry mandates. Always be ready for auditor visits with hundreds of customizable reports for GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, SOX, FISMA, GLBA and more.

Proactively detect active user threats in your AD, file servers and SharePoint environments with user behavior analytics and pattern-based threat detection. Model individual user behavior patterns — with unsupervised machine learning — to detect and automatically react to anomalous activity, like excessive file downloads, SharePoint page views or anything else that might indicate suspicious users or compromised accounts. Reduce the noise from false positive alerts by correlating patterns of abnormal behavior to identify the highest risk users in your environment.

Automate security administration tasks to minimize your vulnerabilities and reduce risk. With Quest solutions, you can delegate administrative accounts securely using least privileged access control, strictly manage permissions with approval-based workflows for user, group and GPO management and easily define and enforce SharePoint governance policies.

Quickly discover who did what, when and where. Quest solutions detect changes to critical AD objects, elevated privileges granted to a user or group or access to critical files and folders. Correlate disparate IT data from numerous systems and devices into an interactive search engine for real-time search/analysis that uses simple, natural language to help IT administrators and security teams swiftly investigate insider attacks.

Ensure minimal loss of productivity and data across AD, Azure AD, Exchange, SharePoint and Office 365. Quest solutions provide automated recovery of users, groups, attributes, messages, mailboxes, content and permissions. Automatically recover entire domain controllers, domains or even forests in the event of a disaster, plus create virtual labs using production data for testing disaster recovery plans.
