Group Policy Security Compliance
What does PolicyPak do?
PolicyPak's Group Policy software prevents unmanaged and unrecorded changes to your desktop applications - allowing for optimal systems management. Whether it's application users constantly manipulating settings and preferences or just the occasional slip of the mouse, PolicyPak's Active Directory tools are there to perform Group Policy lockdown and ensure compliance based upon the desired configuration state of your applications.
Auditors and You: A Harmonious Relationship?
You want auditors to feel confident that you're doing all you can to ensure security based upon application access in desktop and server environments. But giving them a straight answer on how a particular desktop is configured has been a challenge. Once a machine is deployed there are significant opportunities for users to manipulate settings, work around corporate standards and bypass IT security directives and controls.
Because very few applications are designed with compliance in mind using Group Policy security, users can simply choose their own preferences and deviate from your required corporate standards. And, as can be expected, when audit time comes around, you'll fail for not being able to uphold application security.
PolicyPak can help you regain control and work toward application access compliance. PolicyPak has one goal: ensure your application's security and settings. With PolicyPak, you have the ability to configure the desired settings for the applications you have deployed and then deliver the application's options and security settings using the technology you already use: Active Directory and Group Policy.
Once delivered, those settings can be locked down or re-delivered if a user changes them; allowing you to demonstrate to auditors that your corporate operating systems and application's settings are delivered consistently every day; at logon and also while a user is logged in. So even if the application doesn't natively support "lock out", you're doing all you can to ensure the compliance of end user applications access to corporate standards.
PolicyPak enables you to create your own "Paks" for maximized Group Policy security compliance. With PolicyPak, desktop management is easier and you can take comfort in knowing sure that "What you SET is what they GET."
Compliance-Ready Next Steps
With a multitude of laws and standards out there, including Sarbanes-Oxley (Sarbox), Gramm-Leach-Bliley (GLB) and HIPAA, you need to be ready to prove that you - the party responsible for application access settings and application security - are setting the necessary corporate directives.
Are you prepared to meet your legal obligations?
PolicyPak can help you get there by reducing the use of unauthorized software, improving your overall application security (because it's putting down the settings YOU want) and helping you improve the control over your desktops by enforcing Group Policy security.
