FileAudit mentioned on TechRepublic
Our software solution FileAudit has just been mentioned in an article titled “10 ways to make sure your data doesn’t walk out the door”, written by Deb Schinder and published on TechRepublic website.
This article provides an up-to-date look at critical areas of concern when it comes to preventing data theft perpetrated by insiders.
Among useful advice, Deb Shinder recommends to use third-party auditing solutions that can audit file access across multiple storage sites and mentions FileAudit.
From its own console or with a simple right click in Windows Explorer, FileAudit indeed instantly provides IT Security teams with an error ridden and comprehensive list of:
- read/write accesses
- appropriation attempts (accepted or denied)
- permission modification attempts (accepted or denied)
each record detailing:
- the user
- the domain
- the date and time of connection and disconnection
for:
- a file
- a selection of files
- a folder and subfolders
- a selection of folders and subfolders
FileAudit is officially compatible with Windows 7 and can also :
- be scheduled to automatically archive into a database, at regular intervals, the access events occurring on one or more Windows systems for permanent storage.
- display file/folder access history in a printable report that can be scheduled to run automatically.
- export generated results in ASCII format, allowing their use in view of an audit or for subsequent analysis and control.
