Suppose a new user is not getting the expected permissions to open a network share. You want to use IT Security Search to look into this.
To make the investigation as efficient as possible, make sure that data from the following sources is available:
You are about to examine share access, so it makes sense to start by looking at share permissions.
Search for the share path. Click the share you need in the list of results and open its details. In the permissions table, you find the Marketing group, which is used for controlling access to the share. Apparently the user is supposed to be a member of this group, but is not.
Do a search for the Marketing group; click the group in the results and go to the details view for the it. It turns out to be an Active Roles dynamic group. Click the Membership Rules tab in the details table to see how the group is populated. In the Rule Details column, you find the following rule: "[User] department Is (exactly) Marketing".
The user's department information is probably wrong, making the user unfit for membership in the Marketing dynamic group. See if this guess is correct: search for the user name, locate the user in the results and open the user's details.
You find that the value of the Department attribute has a typo: "Markering" instead of "Marketing", and you notify security administrator about this issue.
When you get a response from the administrator saying that the problem has been resolved, you do another search for the Marketing group to confirm that the user is now a member.
IT Security Search comes with additional PowerShell scripts that help automate configuration. These scripts are available in the Scripts subfolder of your IT Security Search installation folder. At this time, the following scripts are shipped:
