Active Directory change auditing is an important
procedure for limiting unauthorized changes and
errors to AD and Group Policy configurations. One
single change can put your organization at risk,
introducing security breaches and compliance
issues. Built-in Active Directory auditing lacks
many important features and doesn't have reporting
capabilities. Careful analysis of multi-megabyte
Security logs can take enormous resources and still
never paint the whole picture. Group Policy change
auditing is not available at all.

NetWrix Active Directory Change Reporter is a free
tool for Active Directory audit reporting that
reports changes made to Active Directory and Group
Policy and delivers detailed information on a daily
basis. Report include the 4 "W"s - Who, What, When,
and Where(*) - for all changes, including "before"
and "after" values for each and every setting. This
report lists changes made to AD and Exchange
configurations, Group Policy objects and setting
modifications, AD schema (*), and many more.

Generated data can be used to:

* Monitor and audit day-to-day administrative
activities.
* Prepare compliance reports for your SOX, GLBA and
HIPAA auditors - Download report sample.

The product records all modifications, including
both user and administrative activity, and e-mails
daily audit reports to AD administrators detailing
every Active Directory and Group Policy change.
Collected audit data is archived and can be stored
for years (*), so you can build summary of changes
made to Active Directory and Group Policy during
any period and drill down to detailed information
as necessary. This AD audit archiving function
allows organizations to analyze any policy
violations, adhere to security best practices and
maintain established internal policies.
