(v2.7)Somarsoft DumpAcl-NT security auditing

other types of permissions, audit settings,
user/group info, etc. in a concise, readable
listbox format, so that "holes" in system
security are readily apparent. Shareware is
fully functional, except printing.

-------------------------------------------
Overview
Somarsoft DumpAcl is a Windows NT program that will dump the permissions
and audit settings for the file system, registry and printers in a consise,
readable listbox format, so that "holes" in system security are readily
apparent. Somarsoft DumpAcl also dumps user/group info. Somarsoft DumpAcl is a
must-have product for Windows NT systems administrators.
Windows NT contains the mechanisms for providing strong system security,
using permissions to control access to objects and auditing to log access.
However, it can be very difficult to determine if all permissions and audit
settings have been set correctly, since there are so many files and registry
keys on the typical system. The situation is analogous to having a building
with unbreakable locks on each of 10,000 doors. The problem is not with the
locks themselves, but rather with one person walking around and checking that
none of the 10,000 doors is unlocked.
Somarsoft DumpAcl provides a solution to the problem of too many files and
registry keys to check on a regular basis, by producing a consise and readable
report of permissions and/or audit settings. By reviewing this report,
you can determine if users have more access than you want to allow. You can
then use file manager, registry editor or print manager to set permissions
and audit settings differently.
