Compare ManageEngine ADAudit Plus vs. Carbide

ADAudit Plus enhances the security and compliance of your Windows Server environment by delivering comprehensive insights into all operational activities. It offers a detailed overview of modifications made to Active Directory (AD) resources, encompassing AD objects and their respective attributes, group policies, and more. By conducting thorough AD audits, organizations can identify and mitigate insider threats, misuse of privileges, and other signs of potential security breaches, thereby bolstering their overall security framework. The tool enables users to monitor intricate details within AD, including entities such as users, computers, groups, organizational units (OUs), group policy objects (GPOs), schemas, and sites, along with their associated attributes. Furthermore, it tracks user management activities like the creation, deletion, password resets, and alterations in permissions, providing insights into the actions taken, the responsible individuals, the timing, and the originating locations. Additionally, it allows organizations to monitor the addition or removal of users from security and distribution groups, ensuring that access privileges are kept to the necessary minimum, which is critical for maintaining a secure environment. This level of oversight is vital for proactive security management and compliance adherence.

A security and privacy program that doesn’t slow down your growth will help you get compliant, prevent breaches, save money, and be compliant. Although "checkbox" security and privacy may seem appealing, it creates security debt that multiplies with every new regulation and each new security questionnaire. Carbide, however, makes enterprise-class security available to all companies. This means that start-ups receive the support they need to design strong security and privacy programs. Established security teams can save valuable time and benefit from the platform's automation and efficiency. Even if you don't have a large security team, it is possible to adopt a privacy and security posture that goes beyond compliance. Carbide makes enterprise-class privacy and security requirements accessible to all companies and makes them achievable.
