NTFS Permissions

NTFS permissions reporter for Active Directory

Analyze and refine share permissions and access control lists (ACLs) using this simplified NTFS permissions tool.

ADManager Plus, our Active Directory management and reporting solution, doubles as a shared folder permissions reporting tool. It offers predefined reports to view, analyze, and modify NTFS and share permissions or ACLs assigned to Windows or NetApp servers, folders, and files.

Using ADManager Plus, you can:

1. Prevent unauthorized access to NTFS partitions and shares

Gain complete visibility into the NTFS and share permissions of all files and folders to prevent the misuse of files, including the corruption of file content due to unauthorized access. Generate access permissions reports for folders, files, and server shares. Drill down to the actual folder or file, and analyze the security settings and ACLs so you can take appropriate action.

2. List folder permissions

  • Shares in the Servers report
    Shares in the Servers report: List all the shares available in the specified servers, along with important details such as their location, the list of accounts that have permissions on the shares (security principals), their associated permissions, and the scope of the permissions (e.g. folder, sub-folder).
  • Folders Accessible by Accounts report
    Folders Accessible by Accounts report: Permissions for : Filter all folders and files based on their specific account permissions. Check for folders in a specified path and further define the level of access (full control or any other control) to generate a list of results.
  • Non-inheritable Folders report
    Non-inheritable Folders report: List the folders and files protected from inheritable permissions. Specify the path to generate a list of all files and folders that are restricted from inheriting their parent objects' permissions.

3. Report on Active Directory access control permissions for users and groups

  • Permissions for Folders report
    Permissions for Folders report: See which users and groups have access to folders in a specified path. The associated access control entries will indicate the level of access a user or group has for a folder, and specify the inheritable permissions, if any.
