File activity monitoring on Windows and Unix-Linux file servers

File Activity Monitoring discovers the sensitive data on your servers; classifies content using pre-defined or user defined definitions; configures rules and policies about data access, and actions to be taken when rules are met.

File activity monitoring consists of the following capabilities:
  • Discovery includes collecting metadata and entitlements for files and folders.
  • Classification uses decision plans to identify potentially sensitive data in the files, such as credit card information or personally identifiable information.
  • Monitoring and collection of audit information and policy rules, and real time alerts or blocking of suspicious users or connections.
