Assess, Audit/Alert and Remediate Access to Critical DataCompliance Suite for WindowsWhether you have an external regulation bearing down on you, or need to meet increasingly stringent internal information security standards, your worry is the same: managing access to information to ensure adequate internal controls. Understanding who has access to specific files and areas of the network, what they are doing with their access, and whether their access is appropriate for their job is critical to addressing an auditor’s requests. And because you can’t absorb any more costs than should normally support the daily operations of your IT group, you need to leverage the same solutions to address both the compliance and IT operational needs. Quite a challenge. What if the objectives to comply with internal and external regulations and improve the efficiency of daily IT operations could be met with the same budget dollar? Using its secure web portal, Compliance Suite for Windows gives organizations a consolidated view of their IT compliance status by assessing and baselining the environment, establishing an audit and alerting process of all events related to the security of information, and putting in place automated remediation when violations to established corporate data security procedures.  | Assess – Visibility on conformance to an expected configuration state for security dictated by external regulations and internal security policies. In general terms, this tells you where you could be exposed.
Audit/Alert – Complete audit trail of user and administrator activity on critical systems. When changes occur, you have the ability to easily determine who made the change, what’s changed, when and where that change was made. Also, real-time alerting of inappropriate changes, enables accelerated resolution.
Remediate – In the short-term, you will want to address the issue immediately which in nature is reactionary while long-term, you will most likely seek approaches that will allow you to address the issue permanently so that these issues are prevented in the first place and will never occur again. The long term approach is favorable since it’s proactive in nature and prevents the weakness, risk and gap from occurring to begin with. | | The Compliance Suite for Windows which incorporates the Compliance Lifecycle helps companies address key requirements driven by internal and external regulations, and can reduce the cost and complexity of compliance within their Windows infrastructure. |
