Introduction

Many applications use Active Directory as an LDAP directory to provide user credentials, group membership information, and other application data. During a directory migration or restructuring project, such as a corporate acquisition, it is important to understand the ways that applications use the directory before migrating the directory structure, to avoid unnecessary application downtime. Obtaining this information from Windows audit logs is extremely difficult, as it requires setting SACLs and aggregating security audit logs from all domain controllers in the environment.

Change Auditor 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 gathered by Change Auditor can then be used during Active Directory forest migration and restructuring projects.

* 
NOTE: Active Directory query auditing is only available if you have licensed Change Auditor for Active Directory Queries. 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.
