ADAudit Plus

ADAudit Plus is a comprehensive Active Directory auditing and security compliance solution engineered to track and alert on changes across enterprise identity environments, domain controllers, member servers, and workstations. Developed by ManageEngine, it provides real-time visibility into user logon activities, group policy modifications, permission changes, and privileged user actions, helping security and systems administrators identify insider threats and external account takeover attempts.

The software deploys on Windows Server systems, collecting and analyzing event logs from Active Directory domain controllers, Azure AD / Microsoft Entra ID tenants, Windows file servers, and NetApp storage clusters. It integrates natively with enterprise SIEM platforms, syslog servers, and IT service desks, enabling automated alerts and compliance reporting. Primary enterprise use cases include monitoring privileged user activity, tracking Active Directory group membership changes, detecting anomalous logon spikes, analyzing file access modifications, and auditing GPO modifications.

Through its extensive library of pre-configured compliance reports mapped to mandates like HIPAA, SOX, PCI DSS, and GDPR, ADAudit Plus simplifies regulatory audits and security reviews. System administrators and auditors gain instant access to interactive dashboards showing who made what change, from where, and at what time. The platform hardens Active Directory security postures, shortens security forensic investigation timelines, and provides dependable identity governance across enterprise networks.
