Vyapin NTFS Security Auditor - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

Vyapin NTFS Security Auditor is an on-premises auditing and reporting tool for Windows file server environments, designed for system administrators, IT infrastructure managers, information security analysts, and systems audit personnel across organizations of all sizes. Installed on a single Windows machine with no agent deployment required on remote computers, it collects, processes, and displays NTFS permissions data locally, auditing Access Control Lists (ACLs) for users and groups across shares, folders, and files spanning multiple domains and servers.

Vyapin NTFS Security Auditor delivers granular, multi-dimensional permissions reporting through a broad feature set: a Security Viewer that presents the full file system permissions hierarchy in an explorer-like interface; built-in reports covering folder and file permissions, effective permissions, ownership, broken inheritance, orphaned and disabled accounts, destructive access, and deny permissions; and Effective Permissions analysis that resolves rights granted both explicitly and through nested group memberships. The Power Search module supports conditional queries against DACL and SACL entries across files and folders, with saveable query profiles for recurring exception detection. Compare ACLs functionality highlights differences in inherited versus explicit permissions between two folders. Security Vulnerabilities Reports surface potential access-rights exposures on shared folders and files. DAC/CAP reporting covers Dynamic Access Control and Central Access Policy permissions on Windows Server 2012 and later. Scan Profiles scope data collection by organizational or departmental hierarchy, making the tool particularly suited to medium and large enterprise networks. Automated scheduled inventory runs at configurable daily, weekly, or monthly intervals, and the Power Export Wizard delivers results in HTML, XLS, XLSX, CSV, or SQL formats on the same schedule. Email distribution to Exchange organization recipients is also supported. Data storage backends include MS-Access and Microsoft SQL Server. The software runs on Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11, and Windows Server 2008 through 2022, requiring Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 or higher.

Applicable across any industry operating Windows file server infrastructure, Vyapin NTFS Security Auditor addresses regulatory compliance requirements for SOX and HIPAA through ready-to-use built-in compliance reports. Performance is optimized via native Windows API calls for fast data collection across large, multi-domain environments, covering shares, folders, files, and local workstation shares throughout the entire domain.
