Flagler Bank Mitigates IT Risks and Secures Sensitive Data

William Cintron, IT Officer for Flagler Bank, chose Netwrix Auditor for its granular reporting and alerting capabilities. He also valued that the software was easy to set up and use.

• Actionable insight into IT risks. The IT Risk Assessment dashboard provides William with clear information about the bank’s top IT risks, such as empty security groups, files whose names indicate that they contain sensitive data, accounts with passwords that never expire, and accounts that can access the network without authentication. For example, the dashboard identifies all user accounts that were inactive but not disabled; by removing them, William dramatically reduced the bank’s risk of account compromise.
• Flexible alerts for faster threat detection. William likes the flexibility of Netwrix alerts: He can use the rich set of predefined alerts, and also create custom alerts for events he deems critical. Now, whenever a privileged user makes changes in Active Directory, someone deletes a message from another employee’s mailbox, or an Exchange object is added or deleted, the software notifies him proactively so he can take action before the suspicious activity leads to an incident.
• Quick and easy investigations. Netwrix Auditor also eases the burden of investigating daily user issues, such as an employee not being able to find a file they need because someone else moved it. With the software, William quickly gets the who-what-when-where details he needs to understand what happened, restore the file and, if necessary, provide training to the employee who moved it. He can complete the investigation in 10 minutes or less, while manually searching through all the event logs would take hours.
