STEALTHbits Introduces StealthINTERCEPT(TM) Directory Authority for Active Directory
GLEN ROCK, NJ, Feb 14, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
STEALTHbits Technologies, the provider of the industry's most
comprehensive IT management and compliance platform for
Microsoft-based systems, applications and data repositories, today
announced the release of StealthINTERCEPT(TM) Directory Authority, a
new product line solving critical problems related to compliance,
data leakage and insider control by providing real-time, in-line
analysis of and controls over any directory and file system changes.
Designed to work in concert with STEALTHbits' award-winning
StealthAUDIT(R) Management Platform (SMP) or as a standalone
solution, StealthINTERCEPT Directory Authority connects directly to
directory and server processes to provide in-line activity analysis
and subsequent event consolidation, archiving, reporting and
response, including alerting and blocking, thus avoiding all of the
debilitating limitations of relying on event logs. Guided by a
revolutionary rules engine that enables the modeling of any
organization's security processes and concerns, StealthINTERCEPT
dramatically streamlines administrator oversight, operational change
control and compliance. StealthINTERCEPT provides the same level of
control over Group Policy Objects to offer another critical security
control to IT professionals.
"The need for more comprehensive security around AD is a growing
requirement for most organizations, but mid-size organizations often
struggle to keep tabs on changes to their AD environment," said Scott
Crawford, managing research director, Enterprise Management
Associates. "With solutions like StealthINTERCEPT, which allow you to
discover changes as they're happening and provide the ability to
proactively lock down objects to reduce unauthorized changes before
they occur, mid-size organizations have access to more advanced
solutions that are appropriately priced."
"As a company looking to gain better insight and control over access
to our data assets, we were pleased to find STEALTHbits is offering
an affordable solution on a single platform to help us more easily
pinpoint what changes are being made and by whom so we can protect
our AD environment to ensure compliance and security," said Donald
Cordner, assistant director, Computer Services at Temple University.
"There's tremendous peace of mind in having the ability to know not
only who made changes, but also what that change was and where it
came from, plus the ability to lock down critical AD objects to
prevent malicious or accidental changes to critical places in our AD
environment."
StealthINTERCEPT Directory Authority includes a robust set of
features that enable IT professionals to:
-- Provide forensics and control over improper insider activity.
-- Rapidly identify accidental changes detrimental to IT operations,
saving time on investigation, remediation and preventing future
occurrences.
-- Utilize a single point of control for network directories and file
systems, including Active Directory, eDirectory, Windows file servers
and filers, and Novell File Systems.
-- Easily ensure that organizational security policies are appropriately
enforced.
-- Dramatically reduce time invested in demonstrating compliance.
-- Reduce the risk of data leakage.
"StealthINTERCEPT is all about the changes that have an impact in your
Active Directory environment -- who made the change, where the change
came from, and what the changed object looked like before and after,"
said Dave Bullas, Active Directory product manager at STEALTHbits
Technologies. "Unlike point solutions or event logs that provide only
a singular view or answer about these events, StealthINTERCEPT
contains a powerful rules engine that provides users the ability to
easily capture AD changes and prevent undesirable changes to critical
objects using a single, integrated platform. With this new product
line, we're providing an affordable solution that makes it easy to
pinpoint what changes were made and by whom to enable greater
visibility for AD administrators."
