File Access Monitoring Automation
Let your AI agent handle tedious file access reviews, investigate incidents, and deliver clear reports—so you can focus on real security threats.
As a Security Analyst, you waste hours digging through SharePoint, OneDrive, and Windows Server logs in Excel just to track who accessed sensitive files. Manual permission checks and incident reviews eat up valuable time, making it easy to miss a critical event or compliance deadline.
An AI agent that reviews file activity, highlights risky permissions, and delivers audit-ready reports for Security Analysts in tech companies.
What this replaces
The hidden cost
What this is really costing you
In the technology sector, Security Analysts spend 1.5 hours each week pulling access logs from SharePoint, Google Drive, and internal servers into Excel to track file usage. Reviewing permissions and investigating suspicious activity is repetitive and error-prone, especially when prepping for SOC 2 or ISO 27001 audits. This manual process often means toggling between Active Directory, email, and SIEM dashboards, increasing the risk of missing unauthorized access.
