Help Net Security « The attention to detail that IS Decisions has shown when planning the account logon rules can also be seen in the built-in reporting mechanism. The software collects a wide range of usage patterns per each user account and you can generate a report based on every one of these parameters. »

Auditingfor regulatory compliance

Accurate information about who was connected, from which system(s), at what time and for how long they were active is necessary for compliance with major regulations. Learn more about logon auditing needs for PCI DSS, ISO 27001, NIST 800-53, SOX and HIPAA.

Custom reportsMakes analysis easy

UserLock records all access events into an ODBC database for reporting. Filter and sort the audit to show only the most pertinent results for your organization. Choose to schedule and view reports directly from the console, send reports to specified mailboxes or print and export in several file formats.

"UserLock has helped simplify IT’s work by reducing between 70 to 90% the time spent monitoring and auditing network access for all users."

User logon auditing Far beyond native Windows Active Directory

Native audit logs are difficult to understand and too cumbersome to manually audit. They show hundreds of logon and logoff events for the same user throughout the day.

Only critical information

UserLock is optimized to keep only relevant access events.

Accurate reporting

No real logon/logoff reporting in native server logs. Read more here

Powerful filtering and search

UserLock excludes irrelevant data and focuses only on insightful information.

Centralized auditing

UserLock makes it easy for network-wide auditing.

Scalable

UserLock works the same whether you have 100 or 100,000 users.

Tamper-Proof

With UserLock, all administrators activity is stringently audited and securely archived. Read more here

Auditing alone isn’t enough for organizations serious about protecting access to their network. As a micro client server application, UserLock can also go far beyond auditing:

  • Monitor in real-time all access events to alert on and react to suspicious access. Read more here.
  • Enforce logon controls to better protect against unauthorized access. Read more here.
  • Eliminate unmanaged concurrent logins to accurately identify a user and make them accountable for any malicious activity. Read more here.

"The reality is simple: If you suspect that your network has been compromised, the built-in tools provided by Microsoft aren’t going to be much help. Trying to find the culprit using Event Viewer is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
