| Multi-Threaded Architecture |
| Administrator productivity increases dramatically
with version 5 as long operations now take place
in separate windows, allowing administrators to
perform multiple functions simultaneously and carry
on working while those operations continue in the
background. |
| |
| Instant Access to Security and Permissions |
| No more navigating through files, folders and
registry keys selecting Properties and trying to
find the Advanced button to see a complete security
list! Security Explorer's interface allows for easy
navigation of files, folders, registry keys, shares
and printers, and instantly shows both assigned
and inherited permissions. |
| |
| Comprehensive Security Management |
| Security Explorer lists the current security settings,
and allows full granting, revoking and modifying
of permissions on NTFS volumes, the registry, file
shares and printers, as well as cloning permissions
between accounts for domain and NT4 migrations. |
| |
| Automated Clean-up and Repair of Permissions |
| Tighten security and eliminate orphaned permissions
with automatic removal for unknown or deleted accounts.
Update file and folder permissions with new SIDs
and re-assign orphaned permissions following migrations
between domains, servers or from NT4 to Active Directory. |
| |
| Local and Enterprise-Wide Access |
| Automate and simplify copies between domains,
or into Active Directory |
| |
| Improved Look and Feel |
| Security Explorer now has an updated look, and
a more powerful and flexible interface. |
| |
| Integrated with Windows Explorer |
| Many Security Explorer functions are integrated
into the right-click menu in Windows Explorer. Additionally,
more Windows Explorer functions are now available
within Security Explorer, which means much less
switching between windows! |
| |
| Backup and Restore Permissions |
| Recovery from accidental changes to security settings
has never been easier! Security Explorer can backup
complete sets of permissions for files and folders,
without having to backup the data they contain.
Security Explorer can also capture permissions for
registry keys, shares and printers. Administrators
can then select any combination of files, folders,
registry keys, printers and shares to recover those
permissions, without affecting the underlying data
or resources. |
| |
| Permission Searches |
| Find security weaknesses and over-privileged users
as Security Explorer lets administrators search
NTFS volumes for specific assignments to all types
of user and group, including permissions received
through group memberships and inheritance, or where
a user or group does not have a specific permission. |
| |
| Export Security Settings in Multiple Formats |
| Security Explorer can export a database or spreadsheet
listing the permissions on files or folders anywhere
in the directory tree. |
| |
| Administrative Override |
| No more "Access Denied" when setting
permissions! Security Explorer can instantly modify
the security settings of file and folders that administrators
would normally have to change to go through multiple
steps to access. |
| |
| Assign Ownership |
| Administrators can use Security Explorer to assign
ownership to files and folders without the need
for the Take Ownership right. |
| |
| Command Line Management |
| Security Explorer has a full command line interface
so you can script and schedule permission management. |
