FileAudit
Monitors and reports who accessed, changed or deleted files and permissions on file servers.
FileAudit — File access monitoring and auditing for file servers and network shares
Organisations struggle to see who touches files on shared stores. Windows file servers and NAS generate lots of events but they are noisy and distributed. That hampers investigations and evidence for compliance.
FileAudit centralises file access events and records user activity, changes and permission edits. It provides searchable logs, alerts for notable changes and scheduled reports to support audits and internal review.
Where FileAudit is used
Compliance teams use FileAudit to produce evidence of who accessed sensitive folders and when, and to schedule regular reports for auditors.
IT teams configure alerts for permission changes, bulk deletions or unusual access patterns so they can investigate without trawling raw event logs.
Suitable environments
Best suited to medium-to-large UK organisations with on-prem Windows file servers or NAS, Active Directory and a need to provide audit trails for data protection or regulatory reviews.
