REAL-TIME AUDITING AND COMPLIANCE

REPORTING FOR ACTIVE DIRECTORY AND

GROUP POLICY

When it comes to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy configura-

tions, a single change can put your organization at risk affecting

productivity, risking security breaches, and threatening

non-compliance. Yet, built-in Active Directory auditing capabilities are

cumbersome, cryptic, and lack centralized auditing and reporting.

Careful analysis of multi-megabyte security logs requires enormous

resources and still fails to paint the entire picture of AD activity. Black-

bird Auditor brings a new level of centralized control and ease to AD

auditing and compliance. This powerful solution monitors Active

Directory and Group Policy in real timetracking the WHO, WHAT,

WHERE, WHEN for every change.
