Imperva User Rights Management For Files

File permissions and file rights audits help ensure file data is accessible only by those with a business need-to-know, which is a key requirement for securing intellectual property, protecting customer data, and complying with data security regulations. However, there is no built-in system that keeps file access rights aligned with business requirements. In fact, it’s challenging to simply get a regularly updated snapshot of which users have access to what data.

User Rights Management for Files (URMF) is an integral part of both SecureSphere File Activity Monitoring and SecureSphere File Firewall that ensures sensitive file data on file servers and network attached storage (NAS) devices has the correct access permissions. It automates user access rights aggregation, consolidation and reporting, identifies dormant users and excessive rights, and provides a framework for file permissions review. User Rights Management for Files helps organizations demonstrate compliance with regulations such as SOX, PCI 7, and PCI 8.5 and reduce the risk of data breach due to overly accessible file data.
