  • An employee has full control over a file that stores critical customer data. They modify the share permissions on this file to allow a friend to steal the data. How long would it take you to spot this?

  • An IT admin grants an employee read/write permissions on a file when they only really need read access. This allows the employee to easily tamper with the integrity of the data in the file. Will you be able to restore file integrity before it's too late?

  • A dangerous file containing malware was created in one of your shared folders because someone had change access to this network share. Do you have succinct audit trails to help you uncover who made this change?

If your answer to any of these questions doesn't help address the problem quickly and efficiently, you might need to do more to keep your organization's security intact. Read on.

How permission changes can pose a threat.

  • Privilege misuse

    Privileged users with access to critical data and full control to tamper with it need to be monitored closely to ensure they don't change ownership rights on sensitive files or provide access to unauthorized users. This way, you can ensure that the principle of least privilege is implemented.

  • Compliance

    Limited access control to sensitive data is mandatory to meet compliance regulations like the GDPR, SOX, HIPAA, GLBA, PCI DSS, FISMA, and ISO 27001. Unwarranted permission changes can lead to hefty fines for your organization.

  • Signs of a breach

    Suspicious NTFS permission changes can indicate a potential data breach. Hackers or malicious insiders can change permissions on important files to gain access, and then steal or leak your business’ data.

What you can do to prevent a breach.

Keep an eye on all NTFS permission changes to make sure that unwarranted access is not granted to anyone.

Monitor permission changes

Be aware of who has what permissions, what objects the permissions apply to, and the level of control users have on sensitive files and shared folders.
