To easily see what effective NTFS permissions a specific user has and why – rights assignment made for a group or direct assignment. This gives you visibility into the effective permissions and access rights for your data. My boss and I couldn’t be more satisfied!įolderSecurityViewer is an NTFS Permissions Reporter that helps you to analyze your Windows Folders or Shares and report all NTFS permissions owner. What took me a couple of days (working off and on) to produce before is now done in less than an hour. It was a life and time saver! It gives me exactly what I was looking for: a simple format that makes it easy to understand who has what access to each folder. I made do with a tool we had that extracted the data and then spent HOURS formatting the data to make it more easily understood by our managers. A year after I took over this reporting our contract expired for the software they had been using to produce the report. We have to send each department member a list of the folders used by their department and they review the security for any problems. While we are not a large organization by any means we have around 100 “workgroups” folders and a public folder with varying levels of security on the subfolders. A couple years ago I started a new job and inherited the responsibility of producing a semi-annual review of the folder permissions on our file server.
