FileSure Defend

Stop malicious or inappropriate employee data access or file copying

. . . using powerful and simple rules you create in FileSure.

While the core version FileSure can track file reads, writes, deletes, renames and security changes, FileSure Defend can track and block them.
FileSure Defend is the independent, targeted, and secure tool that will add a final and impenetrable layer of protection for your sensitive data.

What You Can Do With FileSure Defend

Leverage your existing Group and User Name protocols in combination with certain file types or file naming conventions to create results like these examples:

  • Stop all file security changes except those made by a certain user or users.
  • Only accounting users can write to general ledger files.
  • Only web developers can write to web source files.
  • Only doctors can read patient history files.
  • No sales users except managers can change sales pricing sheets.
  • Protect a web site from changes after normal business hours.
