Rockford Toolcraft Secures Customer Data and Increases Productivity of the IT Department

Ed chose Netwrix Auditor for its ready-to-go and easy-to-read reports, which ensure that he does not have to dig around raw audit data to understand what’s going on with sensitive files. 

• Ensured data confidentiality, integrity and availability. Netwrix Auditor summarizes activity across the file shares, so Ed can see all changes made to files, folders, shares and permissions, as well as all successful and failed access attempts. With this information, he can now easily pinpoint abnormal activity that could pose a risk to sensitive data and easily find accidentally deleted files.
• Optimized workflows within the IT department. By providing the visibility into Active Directory and Group Policy, Netwrix Auditor extends transparency into workflows across the whole IT department. The software bridges communication within the department: it shows what tasks were already done by Ed's teammates, so they can avoid redundancy and also double check that it was done right. It has been especially critical for onboarding and offboarding processes.
• Refined employee training. The software alerts Ed to critical events, such as changes to the membership of sensitive security groups, and shows who made the change. These alerts not only enable him to promptly catch and correct any deviations from security policy that could affect data security and availability, but also to proactively prevent future errant changes by going straight to the IT specialist responsible and explaining the proper workflow again.
