Active Directory Auditing and Reporting
Audit Active Directory administration and quickly produce meaningful reports
Microsoft Active Directory has increasingly become the authoritative source for Identity and Access Management. Regulatory requirements and data protection laws require that administrative access to critical data, such as that stored in Active Directory, must be diligently controlled and documented via audit logs.
However, native tools lack the capabilities necessary to capture and securely store audit events and to easily produce meaningful Active Directory administrative activity reports.
To securely and efficiently document administrative activity, your approach to Active Directory auditing and reporting should:
- Centrally log all administrative activity
- Compress and securely store audit events in a tamper-resistant repository
- Provide detailed change analysis, including before and after values of a change
- Offer drag-and-drop report customization
- Easily produce granular detail or high-level trending reports
