Free Software Identifies Applications Requiring Administrator Rights
www.adtmag.com Enterprises can now more easily determine which applications their employees run that require administrative rights, a condition that makes the environment more susceptible to malicious users and viruses and prevents compliance with regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and HIPAA. BeyondTrust's free Application Rights Auditor automatically identifies and reports Windows applications that need elevated user rights.
Once these applications are identified, enterprises can remove users' administrative rights without any application downtime, creating a more secure and compliant environment and lowering the cost of Windows system administration. The company says that before this tool was released, enterprises had to rescind rights from every user and see which applications broke or to examine each installed application individually.
