Popular Features

Discover all the features that make File System Auditor the most powerful auditing and reporting solution available today.

• 

  Smart Alerts

  Receive notification immediately when someone accesses, or attempts to access a file, folder or share covered by your audit policy.

• 

  Forensic Information

  Comply with regulations and corporate security policies with the ability to show who has touched what files or folders, when, on what server, and which workstation the user was logged into at the time of the event.

• 

  Record and Report

  Record all events in a central SQL database and create reports that contain all information pertinent to the event including: event type, username, date/time, process, and file path involved. Once collected, that information can be exported to one of the following formats: RTF, PDF, HTML, XLS, CSV, TIF, TXT and RDF and then distributed to appropriate stakeholders.

• 

  Intelligently Monitor

  Monitor file system activity and return a single entry as opposed to native tools which can yield dozens of event log entries for each event.

• 

  Share Audit

  Audit all events related to file shares including share creations, deletions, and security modifications which helps ensure access to shared folders is maintained by capturing all change events.

• 

  Centrally Audit

  Centrally install and uninstall the auditing service on every file server from one console, with no reboots or interruption. This makes setup faster, provides single-point monitoring of the agent health, and reduces the effort required to establish auditing policies across multiple file servers.

• 

  Scheduled Notifications

  Schedule reports to be generated and delivered in 5-minute intervals, daily, weekly, monthly etc. so administrators and other business owners can have up-to-date information on file system activity.

• 

  Clustered Server Support

  Clustered servers are automatically detected and treated as one for ease of auditing and reporting.

• 

  Manageable Storage

  Store events centrally in a SQL database in order to maintain a secure audit trail, with the ability to purge all audit data once it reaches a certain age. This allows for creation of an automated maintenance plan which would include archiving old data and then removing it from the database, helping to maintain the size of the auditing database to conserve disk space and increase performance.
