Active Directory Auditing Software
Lepide Auditor for Active Directory provides a scalable means of auditing changes made to configurations and permissions. We provide answers to the important “who, what, where, and when” Active Directory auditing questions to help you bolster security, speed up investigations, mitigate the risks of privilege abuse and meet compliance requirements.
Audit Configuration and Object Changes
Get before and after values of every change with the answers to the who, what, when and where questions through 100+ audit reports.
Troubleshoot Account Lockouts
Helps you track account lockouts source and provides option to unlock them. Investigate which tasks, services, or processes causing account lockouts.
Track Logon Activities
You can easily audit failed logon events, concurrent logon sessions, users' login history on to multiple computers and much more.
Permission Analysis
Analyze the effective permissions of your users and spot permission changes. Reverse the unwanted permission changes to an ideal state.
Rollback Changes
Rollback any unwanted or unplanned change to its original value. Even lets you retrieve objects from tombstone and recycled state.
Audit Group Policy Changes
Track modifications made to Group Policy objects and proactively thwart any alterations to the most vital GPOs.
Detect Threats to Active Directory
The majority of security threats originate with AD. Detailed, real-time Active Directory security auditing, combined with machine learning anomaly spotting, helps you detect these risks faster.
Monitor Common Attack Paths
Keep track of what your most high-risk privileged users are doing, detect threats like ransomware, and spot changes in user behavior with proactive Active Directory monitoring.
Achieve and Maintain Compliance

What Makes Our Active Directory Auditing Tool Different?
Lepide Active Directory auditing software enables you to easily audit, monitor and alert on everything that is happening to your Active Directory, all from a single platform. Get the critical information you need in a way that’s readable, understandable and actionable.
Our risk assessment dashboards give you all the critical audit information you need about the state of your Active Directory Security. Easily audit Active Directory permissions and configurations changes and spot potentially dangerous security states that need immediate attention.
Active Directory structures can become complex and difficult to understand as an organization grows and evolves. Attackers can easily exploit a lack of visibility over this structure. Our Active Directory audit software gives you the ability to easily see who has what levels of access and how they got them so that you can easily visualize your AD structure.
Machine learning backed behavior analytics learns what the normal behavior of your Active Directory users looks like and will alert you when anomalies are detected. Audit and reverse Active Directory permission changes so that you can maintain a policy of least privilege and better govern access to govern access to data. Automated responses can be triggered from real time alerts to help mitigate potential Active Directory threats and attacks.
Our Active Directory auditing software provides a single log for a single change displaying who, what, where and when the changes are made. We then provide this data to you through more than 100 relevant AD audit reports to help you address all manner of compliance, security, and IT operations challenges. Each report can be further customized with advanced filtration, searching, sorting, and other auditing functions. These Active Directory audit reports can also be shared with other users through a secure web console.
Strange logon/logoff activity, such as users logging on out of office hours, or multiple failed logons in a short space of time, can be the signs of a potential threat. Our Active Directory auditing tool simplifies this search with simple yet detailed Active Directory auditing reports on failed logon events, concurrent logon sessions, and users logged on to multiple computers. Our AD auditing tool also sends real-time and threshold-based alerts for successful user logon or logoff and can spot anomalies in logon/logoff behavior.
Our AD auditing tool periodically captures backup snapshots of Active Directory objects and saves their state. You can use these snapshots to generate historical reports on the state of users, groups, computers, and organizational units (the four important objects) at any given point in time. It gives you a clear picture of exactly when any of these objects were created or modified and what it’s properties are.
What We Audit in Active Directory
Our Active Directory auditing software helps organizations overcome the limitations of native auditing, by aggregating event log data into “single-pane” reports. Below is a non-exhaustive list of what changes you can track with our Active Directory auditing tool.
Whenever an object created, deleted or modified in Active Directory, our Active Directory auditing tool will generate a report, providing all details about the particular object that has been created, modified or deleted and a real time alert can be sent if required. In this report, you will be able to see who created, deleted or modified the object, the object path, class, when it was created, modified or deleted and from where, all in one easy to read report.
In any IT environment, it is advised that you lock accounts that are inactive for a long period of time or on which suspicious activities were taking place. However, locking an Active Directory user account can impact other activities linked to that account, which could be a mess left to the IT team to clean up. Lepide’s Active Directory Auditing tool helps you better handle user account lockouts, by auditing the account lockouts and providing the option to unlock or reset their passwords. You can also investigate which tasks, services, or processes is causing this account lockout.
Our Active Directory audit software offers you dedicated reports to help keep track of the security settings of Active Directory objects. In addition to permissions, you can also compare audit settings, and ownership of an object between intervals. You have the option to track all changes made in audit settings and object ownership, and also view them on any particular date. Our solution lets you search for an object in the audit entries or see a list of owners of a selected object.
From time to time, a user account may be modified in error or a Junior Administrator may accidentally delete an OU. The restore and rollback feature of the Lepide Active Directory auditing tool enables you to reverse changes made in a single click. It restores everything to exactly as it was before the change – including group memberships, attributes, permissions and more.
Lepide’s Active Directory audit tool helps overcome the limitations of native Active Directory auditing by showing all group membership changes over a given period in a single “Group Modifications” report. You can see the answers to the “who, what, where and when” Active Directory auditing questions in one, easy-to-read place.
The Lepide Active Directory auditing tool lets you track the members of administrative groups in Active Directory to give you a clear picture of the privileged users. Our solution also offers a way to track all activities of Active Directory privileged users and sends real-time or threshold-based alerts for any critical change made by a privileged user account.
We use Lepide for the security of our Azure and On-prem environment, its real time alert system is awesome!

Complete coverage for your on-premise, cloud, or hybrid environment
Lepide’s Active Directory Auditing software enables you to audit all critical Active Directory changes, including which users can create, manage or delete domain controllers, user and computer accounts, security groups, organizational units, trust relationships, administrative workstations and more.
Lepide also enables you to audit changes to configurations and permissions that could result in users with excessive privileges. This is critical when implementing a policy of least privilege.
