This tool offers two important features which play a critical role in detecting and responding to ransomware attacks successfully: mass access alerts and automatic alert responses.

Using these two features, DataSecurity Plus significantly reduces the time it takes to detect and respond to a ransomware attack. In fact, it automatically responds as soon as it detects the signs of a ransomware-type compromise. In doing so, it completely removes the need for human intervention, which is often slow and unsuccessful when pitted against ransomware attacks.

Audit access rights

Examine share and security permissions of files and folders and prevent access exploitation.If users are given excessive rights and permissions to files, it could result in inappropriate access or unwarranted changes.

DataSecurity Plus addresses this concern by acting as an NTFS and file share permission reporter.
