Case Study: Northwestern University School of Law achieves instant permission tracking and HIPAA-compliant file auditing with LepideAuditor (Lepide)

How Northwestern University School of Law got the Ability to Instantly Track Permission Changes on File Servers

Northwestern University School of Law needed to secure HIPAA-protected research data stored on its file servers and meet a contractual requirement for continuous monitoring. The school required a solution that was easy to install and use, offered advanced reporting and alerting, and was cost-effective.

After evaluating vendors, they chose LepideAuditor for File Server, licensed per server, which gave instant tracking of permission, file, and folder changes and detailed who/what/where/when visibility. The tool delivered the reports and search/access auditing required for HIPAA compliance, provided comprehensive monitoring of server access, and proved easy to deploy and manage.
