Javelina Software Unvweils HIPAA Compliant ADsecurity

(Dec 27, 2007)-- Javelina Software announced the addition of a new product, ADsecurity, a set of tools specifically designed to help IT administrators manage their network security. With ADsecurity's reports and tools administrators have the ability to locate, document, and repair security rights in an Active Directory network.

ADsecurity contains dozens of pre-configured reports with the ability to report on Security rights for Files and Shares, Active Directory Objects, and Exchange Mailboxes: the exact information needed to comply with government regulations such as HIPAA and Sarbanes-Oxley.

Increasing network security is a top priority for many companies. It is imperative for large companies to maintain a separation of data. Human Resource files contain personal data that should only be accessed by an HR representative and most companies don't want open access to their accounting files. With ADsecurity IT administrators can pull up a report that will document who has access to what folders and files. Prior to ADsecurity many administrators spent hours fumbling with spreadsheets and screenshots to document who has access to a particular folder and now it takes seconds. And to make the reporting process even more convenient, all reports can be scheduled to run automatically and even e-mailed automatically, via SMTP or Exchange, making it easy for administrators to relay the information to auditors.

ADsecurity also includes several tools to analyze and clean network ACLs. These tools can scan through the ACLs on Files, Shares and Active Directory Objects and find empty or missing ACLs, invalid or deleted SIDs in ACEs, and several other common security problems. And, many of these problems can be automatically corrected with the very same tools.

Javelina software continues to prove through ADsecurity that they are serious about helping IT administrators manage their everyday tasks such as network security. "We pride ourselves in providing the tools necessary for Active Directory administrators to effectively manage their network," states David Ritchie, President of Javelina Software.
