Enterprise Security Reporter
Enterprise Security Reporter is an agent-less, fast, comprehensive reporting solution for Windows networks that combs through the vast amount of data found within NTFS permissions, Active Directory accounts, server registries and shares, and stores the information collected in a reporting database, allowing administrators to analyze, query and report on the security configuration of their network.
In large and complex networks, the sheer number of permission settings makes it almost impossible to gain a clear overview of overall security,and checking that all those permissioare in compliance with corporate and regulatory standards is a Herculean task. Native,built-in operating system tools are inadequate and do not provide the summary or detailed reports needed to understand and proactively manage access controls.
Enterprise Security Reporter focuses on enterprisewide Windows network permissions. Using agentless discovery of Active Directory,NTFS (file and folder) permissions, the registry, and file and printer shares, Enterprise Security Reporter produces the vital reports needed to document security and take proactive action. Further, Enterprise Security Reporter provides analysis of all that information to show how users gain access to selected resources, and highlights where permissions have been modified, increased or removed.
COMPREHENSIVE REPORTING ON WINDOWS SECURITY
Enterprise Security Reporter's discovery engines remotely collect relevant security information from Windows servers and Active Directory and store it in a database for analysis and reporting. Servers can be selected for individual discovery or Discovery Groups can be created to define sets of servers and domains.The Discovery Console gives the user complete control over which security attributes should be discovered and stored in the database, including:
- Domain and Local Users, Groups,Memberships,
- Account Rights, AD Attributes and Last Logon
- Folders and Files (NTFS permissions, size, ownership)
- File Shares and Printers (and their permissions)
- Domain Controllers and Trust Relationships
- Services (and their permissions)
- Local Computer Policies and Event Log Configurations
- Registry Keys (and their permissions)
TURNKEY REPORTS
Enterprise Security Reporter has over 140 built-in reports, encompassing the most common reporting needs. Reports are based on the information collected using the Discovery Console. A simple selection of the type of report (such as File Permissions, Group Memberships or Ownership) and the specific report you wish to run, and you instantly have an organized, useful set of information at your fingertips. Reports can be easily categorized based on your organizations needs using an explorer-like interface.
"DELTA" SNAPSHOT COMPARISONS
Reporting on the current state of security is one thing, but finding changes from a "known good" state is just as important. Enterprise Security Reporter's Delta Reporting allows administrators to select two discovery snapshots and report on the differences, highlighting the security changes made to file systems, registries, shares, Active Directory and more.
ENTERPRISE SCALABILITY
Enterprise Security Reporter is not limited to reporting one server's security at a time; it supports the definition of Enterprise Scopes to easily include reporting on multiple Windows servers and domain controllers anywhere in your Windows network. The data used to generate reports is stored in a SQL (or MSDE) database, making the data easily accessible to many users within your enterprise from the Reporting Console.
COMPLIANCE REPORTING
Enterprise Security Reporter has a reporting section organized to support the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance standards. The reports are organized under the legislation that requires them. This makes it easy to find the report for the compliance need you have.
