Streamline IT Security Audits
Ensure secure access controls with an IT security audit
Help pinpoint insider risks by running an IT security audit
During a security audit, IT teams need quick visibility into details—which requires a unified security management console. SolarWinds® Access Rights Manager™ (ARM) IT security audit software is built to centralize user account management for faster incident response and risk assessment. In addition to demonstrating adherence to security policies, running built-in reports helps you identify and investigate privilege abuses, suspicious account activity, and other vulnerabilities.
Automate access management to help ensure data security
Automating user access controls can speed up IT operations and improve accuracy—protecting your organization against security threats caused by misconfigured permissions. SolarWinds IT audit software automates critical tasks within the user access management process. You can quickly create, modify, activate, deactivate, and delete user access to files and services. Users can request access rights directly from resource owners, instead of funneling permissions requests to the administrator.
Prevent data loss with the deep visibility offered by security audit software
ARM aims to proactively prevent data loss with role-specific templates, which aim to ensure user provisioning conforms to your security policies. Use a tree structure to easily visualize all user permissions to access files, services, and data. This intuitive tool lets you monitor privileged accounts and group memberships for Active Directory, Exchange, SharePoint, and more. And with customizable alerts, you can flag security risks with the potential to cause loss of sensitive files and data.

Do you find yourself asking…
An IT security audit is a process aimed to ensure a high standard of IT security compliance for businesses needing to operate within certain regulations or guidelines. An IT security audit examines many parameters contributing to a secure business IT system, including access rights and user activity related to confidential files and folders. Understanding access controls is important because many compliance standards are specifically related to protecting sensitive data, whether financial, medical, or personal.
IT security audits can be performed by independent auditors on a regular basis. An audit may be proactive, to prevent issues, or it can be reactive if a security breach has already occurred. Different aspects of your IT infrastructure may come under scrutiny when your business undergoes an IT security audit, but as noted, data access is a key area of concern.
