Permissions analysis of Microsoft Windows and Active Directory services represents a challenge for every administrator. Several permission assignment capabilities complicate the overview of the effective user’s permissions under some circumstances.
Docusnap inventories existing shares, local users and groups and the entire Active Directory by default. The Permissions Analysis module extends the feature set by scanning the NTFS authorizations on Windows and CIFS-based systems.
After all the data has been scanned, Docusnap provides a multitude of analysis features through the Permissions Analysis module:
- Graphic presentation of inheritances and blocked inheritances in directory trees
- Display of shares and NTFS authorizations (direct and inherited) at a glance
- Analysis of effective rights for selected users and groups
- Permissions analysis matrix for showing all users with authorizations to selected directories
- Filter features for quick ad-hoc analyses
- Graphic presentation of group and user hierarchies
- Comprehensive, adjustable reports in the Permission Analysis area
