Active Directory (AD) is a directory service that controls who has access to systems, applications, and data resources across the network. It is therefore very important to get visibility into Active Directory and track activities occurring within it to reduce risks and ensure confidentiality, integrity, and availability of resources.

LT Auditor+ protects your organization from internal and external threats by providing real-time monitoring of all changes occurring in AD. These changes include:

  1. Creating and deleting Active Directory users, groups, organizational units, computers, and any other type of object.
  2. Tracking when any AD object is renamed or moved in Active Directory.
  3. Monitoring changes to attributes of objects providing before and after values of these changes.
  4. Monitoring changes to permissions in Active Directory.
  5. Tracking account lockouts.Monitoring AD login activity.
  6. Monitoring AD login activity.

LT Auditor+ generates security intelligence reports by actively monitoring user activity and alerting on suspicious activities. The AD change information collected with LT Auditor+ can clearly identify:

  • When an Active Directory Change was done.
  • From Where the change was affected.
  • What changes were made.
  • Who was responsible for the change.
