Tools4ever Launches "Enterprise Resource Authorization Manager" for Users to Regain Access Control of Unstructured Data

The software firm provides end-to-end identity governance and access management solutions with minimal investment, but providing maximum results.

​​Tools4ever, a leading worldwide provider of identity and access governance IT software solutions supplying some of the world’s most advanced educational entities, healthcare organizations, municipalities, manufactures, retailers and small and large businesses, announces the availability of its new solution, Enterprise Resource Authorization Manager.

Enterprise Resource Authorization Manager, also known as ERAM, allows organizations to regain management over the access control of unstructured data. The solution provides insight into who has access to what information, who should have access to that information, who is the owner of the data, who has tried to access certain data and specifies the storage location of certain sensitive information.

"Our mission is to develop and deliver pragmatic and cost-efficient solutions. We make use of our phased implementation approach, which allows you to achieve results for your IGA implementation in a short period of time and for a limited investment. We can implement an end-to-end solution within weeks or even hours rather than months or even years, as is the current norm. Because of this approach, the comprehensive solution portfolio, and competitive pricing."

Dean Wiech, Managing Director at Tools4ever

ERAM is a software package designed to visualize authorizations on resources in an enterprise computer network. The package can be configured for scheduled collection of user permissions on files and folders in Windows NTFS file systems, including network shares and compatible network-attached storage (NAS) devices, complemented with user and group information derived from Active Directory.

Tools4ever’s ERAM offers organizations the insight into their file systems access permissions, information pollution and provides an easy way to clean access permissions across an organization. For example, a common challenge for organizations is that employees accumulate more access permissions to file system resources during their employment within the company. Employees request access, but revocation of rights rarely occurs. When transferred from department A to B, adding access permissions for department B is granted, but processes typically fail to revoke access permissions for department A.

ERAM for System Administrators

With the improved insight into the actual access rights to the file system, the system administrator can easily answer questions, such as who has access to what and whether they are actually using these rights. ERAM does away with the complex and time-consuming effort that is involved in answering questions of this type.

ERAM also allows systems administrators to assign permissions easily and ensures that the helpdesk, or the systems administrator, see a reduction or elimination of calls from end users confronted with the inability to access their data. The solution provides support for migration activities, such as eliminating pollution to allow for a clean migration.

ERAM for Security Officers

Operating systems do not provide the functionality that is required to manage data access in a controlled fashion. This results in the risk of unauthorized personnel gaining access to sensitive information. ERAM allows the security officer to regain control over the access to unstructured data through advanced reporting and dashboard apps. The solution eliminates the necessity to perform complex, labor-intensive and inefficient analysis in support of access permission management, a legacy approach based on the outdated and incomplete information.
