Change Auditor Overview

Change Auditor provides total auditing and security coverage for your enterprise network. Change Auditor audits the activities taking place in your infrastructure and, with real-time alerts, delivers detailed information about vital changes and activities as they occur. Instantly know who made the change including the IP address of the originating workstation, where and when it occurred along with before and after values. Then automatically turn that information into intelligent, in-depth forensics for auditors and management — and reduce the risks associated with day-to-day modifications.

•	Audit critical changes across your enterprise including Active Directory, Azure Active Directory, Office 365 Exchange Online\SharePoint Online\OneDrive for Business, Exchange, Windows File Servers, NetApp, EMC, SQL Server, SharePoint, and Microsoft Skype for Business.

•	Collect user login and log out activity for regulatory compliance and user activity tracking.

•	Automate ongoing compliance with tracking and reporting for compliance initiatives such as SOX, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, FISMA, GLBA, and more.

•	Speed troubleshooting through real-time insight into changes with a comprehensive audit library including built-in audit alerts, reports, and powerful searches.

•	Proactively protect (lock down) critical Active Directory objects, Exchange mailboxes, and Windows files and folders from harmful changes that could open security holes or cause resources to become unavailable.

•	Modular approach allows separate product deployment and management for key environments including Active Directory, Exchange, Windows File Servers, NetApp, EMC, SQL Server, Active Directory Queries, SharePoint, Logon Activity, and Skype for Business.

•	Track, audit, report, and alert on critical changes made using Safeguard Authentication Services and Quest Defender.

Available Change Auditor auditing modules

Continually being in-the-know helps you to prove compliance, drive security, and improve uptime while proactively auditing changes to configurations and permissions. You can automatically generate intelligent, in-depth reports, protecting you against policy violations and avoiding the risks and errors associated with day-to-day modifications.

Quest provides the following products to help you track, audit, report, and receive alerts on vital changes and activity:

 

Table 1.  

Available auditing	Benefits
Quest Change Auditor for Active Directory	Drives the security and control of Active Directory by tracking vital configuration changes to users, groups, nested groups, GPOs, computers, services, registry, local users and groups and DNS — without the overhead costs of system provided auditing. You can also lock down critical Active Directory, ADAM (AD LDS), and Group Policy objects, to protect them from unauthorized or accidental modifications or deletions. Change Auditor for Active Directory also audits activity in Microsoft Azure Active Directory. Correlating activity across the on-premises and cloud directories, provides a single pane-of-glass view of your hybrid environment and makes it easy to search all events regardless of where they occurred.
Quest Change Auditor for Exchange	Simplifies auditing the activities taking place in your entire Exchange environment. You can audit over 300 Exchange events covering owner and nonowner mailbox changes, server configurations and permissions, and more. Through the Exchange Mailbox protection feature, you can prevent unwanted access to Exchange mailboxes, making it much more difficult for rogue administrators to access critical mailboxes. You can also audit Office 365 Exchange Online configuration and permission changes.
Quest Change Auditor for Windows File Servers	Enables administrators to achieve the comprehensive auditing coverage of system provided tools without the mass of cumbersome data that system provided event logs generate. You can audit activity related to files and folders, shares, and changes to permissions. Change Auditor provides an access control model that allows administrators to protect business-critical files and folders on the file server.
Quest Change Auditor for EMC	Eliminates the time and complexity of system provided auditing by providing EMC Celerra/VNX file and folder changes in real time and translating events into plain English.
Quest Change Auditor for NetApp	Eliminates the time and complexity of system provided auditing by providing NetApp file and folder changes in real time and translating events into plain English.
Quest Change Auditor for SQL Server	Provides database auditing to secure SQL database assets with extensive, customizable auditing and reporting for all critical SQL changes including broker, database, object, performance, and transaction events, plus errors and warnings. Helps tighten enterprise-wide change and control policies by tracking user and administrator activity such as database additions and deletions, granting and removing SQL access. SQL Data Level auditing allows you to audit changes to databases and tables.
Quest Change Auditor for Active Directory Queries	Monitors directory access across all domain controllers in the environment and aggregates that information in a central database identifying LDAP-enabled applications and how they use Active Directory. The LDAP access data can then be used during Active Directory forest migration and restructuring projects.
Quest Change Auditor for SharePoint	Provides centralized auditing, including configuration, event collection and reporting, for Microsoft SharePoint 2016 and 2019 servers and farms. It provides built-in queries and reports that focus on auditing the following areas: • Access to content in SharePoint sites • Modifications of content (creation, modification, and deletion) • Changes to permissions and security settings You can also audit Office 365 SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business changes.
Quest Change Auditor for Logon Activity	Change Auditor for Logon Activity has removed the dependency on InTrust and the Change Auditor Data Gateway Service to capture user logon activity. This auditing module consists of two licenses (one for server agents and another for workstation agents) and may be used to collect logon activity events for regulatory compliance and user activity tracking. • The Change Auditor for Logon Activity User license enables server agents to audit authentication activity, domain controller authentication activity (Kerberos), and user logon session activity (the actual time spent on a server). • The Change Auditor for Logon Activity Workstation license enables workstation agents to audit authentication activity and user logon session activity (the actual time spent on a workstation).
Quest Change Auditor for Skype for Business	Allows you to audit configuration and security setting changes in Microsoft Skype for Business Server and change notifications for Skype user setup, permissions, and application configuration from the Microsoft Skype for Business Server Central Management Store (CMS).
Quest Change Auditor for Authentication Services	Authentication Services enables organizations to extend the security and compliance of Active Directory to Unix, Linux, and Mac platforms and enterprise applications. Using Change Auditor for Authentication Services, users of Authentication Services can audit on critical changes to: • Unix/Linux/Mac-related data for Active Directory users, groups, computers, NIS objects, and Authentication Services personalities • Unix/Linux/Mac settings in Group Policy Objects NOTE: Authentication Services auditing is only available if you have licensed Change Auditor for Active Directory. If you do not have a valid license you can use the features, however, associated events are not captured.
Quest Change Auditor for Defender	Enhances security by enabling two-factor authentication to network, Web, and applications-based resources. Defender was designed to base all administration and identity management on an organization’s existing investment in Active Directory and eliminates the costs and time involved in setting up and maintaining proprietary databases. Change Auditor for Defender tracks changes to user accounts enabled with Defender tokens in Active Directory. Because Defender extends the Active Directory schema, once the Change Auditor for Defender auditing is enabled, agents installed on Domain Controllers detect any changes made to the Defender-specific attributes in Active Directory and generate events. No audit template is needed. NOTE: Defender auditing is only available if you have licensed Change Auditor for Active Directory. If you do not have a valid license you can use the features, however, associated events are not captured. To verify that it is licensed, right-click the coordinator icon in the system tray and select Licensing.

 

Agent Deployment

•	Deployment page

•	Using group Managed Service Accounts (gMSA)

•	Deploy agents

•	Connect to a different foreign forest/update credentials

•	Change the agent installation location and system tray option

•	Enable auto deployment

•	Refresh or clear Deployment page information

Deployment page

The Deployment page displays all the servers and workstations discovered in your Active Directory environment. From here, you specify the servers and workstations (if the Change Auditor for Logon Activity Workstation license is applied) to host a Change Auditor agent.

The first time you open Change Auditor, the Deployment tab is available for you to deploy agents. After agents are deployed, use the View | Deployment menu to open the page.

NOTE: The Deployment page does not display non-member objects, such as ADAM workgroup servers or non-Active Directory workstations, because agents cannot be deployed to non-member objects using the Deployment tab. See the Change Auditor Installation Guide for information about manually installing agents to workgroup servers or non-Active Directory workstations.

Filter the fields on the Deployment page

The Deployment page may contain the following for each server and workstation discovered in your Active Directory forest. To display fields other than the defaults, click the Field Chooser located to the far left of the column headings and select the columns to display.

 

Table 1. Deployment page: Field descriptions
