Case Study: L-3 Electron Technologies Division achieves SOX compliance and Active Directory change visibility with Netwrix Auditor

Tracking Active Directory and Group Policy Changes for SOX Compliance

L-3 Electron Technologies Division, part of L-3 Communications and a major aerospace and defense contractor, was struggling with undocumented Active Directory and Group Policy changes that threatened SOX compliance and left IT administrators without visibility during audits.

They deployed Netwrix Auditor for Active Directory, which provided fast, low‑overhead setup and automated daily reports showing who changed what, when and where with before/after values. The solution delivered the visibility needed to satisfy auditors, quickly pinpoint accidental or unauthorized changes, improve infrastructure security and stability, and led the team to expand Netwrix auditing to Exchange and file servers.
