Detect security threats, prove compliance and increase IT team efficiency with IT audit software from Netwrix
More and more organizations, regardless of size or industry, are recognizing the value of conducting regular internal and external IT audits. The benefits are many: IT auditing can help you improve security, pass compliance audits and optimize IT operations. But all too often, the process is far more cumbersome and time-consuming than it needs to be. Learn how Netwrix Auditor software can help you improve your security posture, ease the auditing burden and achieve your goals with far less effort.
Audit your most important IT systems from a centralized platform
Are you tired of juggling multiple auditing and reporting tools in an attempt to collect audit information from all your on-premises and cloud-based systems? Do you need a software solution that delivers that information in a unified and consistent way? Netwrix Auditor provides a consolidated audit trail across a wide variety of IT systems, including Active Directory, Windows Server, Oracle Database and network devices.
Get the information you need, when you need it, with IT audit software from Netwrix
Mitigate weaknesses with risk assessment
Identify data and infrastructure security gaps, such as a large number of directly assigned permissions or too many inactive users, and take corrective actions to reduce your attack surface area.
Protect your sensitive data regardless of its location
Secure your most critical assets first by pinpointing sensitive data across your IT ecosystem, regularly reviewing who has access to it and monitoring activity around it (requires Netwrix Data Classification).
Save time with change, access and configuration reports
Quickly get the information required by management, auditors and other stakeholders instead of struggling with scripts, log files and spreadsheets.
Streamline user access reviews
Accurately enforce the least-privilege principle by delegating access reviews to data owners and enabling them to approve current permissions or request changes with the optional access review module.
Receive alerts on threat patterns
Be the first to know about suspicious activity around your sensitive data so you can respond before you suffer data breaches and system failures or get slapped with fines for noncompliance.
Improve detection of sophisticated threats
Spot malicious insiders and compromised accounts with a comprehensive view of all anomalous activity alerts triggered by an individual, along with the user’s associated cumulative risk score.
Spot even slight indicators of a threat
Detect even subtle indicators of possible threats, such as unusual logons that might indicate account compromise or admin activity outside of business hours, so you can take action before adversaries take control.
Find answers with Google-like search
Find the exact details you need in a few clicks, such as all access events for a user or all activity related to a certain sensitive file, and easily get to the bottom of an incident, resolve a user issue or respond to ad-hoc questions from auditors.
Pass compliance audits with less stress
Get out-of-the-box reports aligned with controls from a wide range of standards, including PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOX, GDPR, GLBA, FISMA/NIST, CJIS and more. Answer ad-hoc questions during audits in minutes with a Google-like search.

What is IT audit software?
IT audit software is a tool that helps organizations track and analyze activity across their IT infrastructure to reduce risk and simplify compliance. Netwrix Auditor provides a centralized, searchable audit trail of user behavior, system changes, and access events to help prove compliance, investigate incidents, and maintain control across hybrid environments.
How does IT audit software work?
Netwrix Auditor collects and normalizes data from critical systems (like Active Directory, Windows Server, Microsoft 365, databases, and network devices). That information is then delivered through intuitive dashboards, prebuilt reports, and alerting. IT audit software transforms raw logs into clear insights so you can quickly understand what’s happening and why.
What benefits does an IT auditing tool offer?
With Netwrix Auditor, teams can reduce audit prep time by up to 85%, accelerate incident investigations, and spot risky activity faster. It helps enforce policies, streamline reporting, and improve operational efficiency — all while delivering the visibility you need to meet compliance requirements with less manual effort.
How do IT audit software tools improve risk management?
By showing who has access to what and how they’re using it, Netwrix Auditor helps you detect overprovisioned accounts and unusual activity. Risk assessments, real-time alerts, and threat pattern detection allow IT teams to detect threats early and take action quickly.
Why should organizations run IT audits?
Regular IT audits help validate that systems are secure, policies are enforced, and sensitive data is properly protected. They’re essential for meeting compliance requirements, uncovering vulnerabilities, and identifying access or configuration risks. Most organizations should audit their IT environment continuously, with a structured review at least quarterly. In more regulated industries, structured reviews may need to happen more frequently.
What are the different types of IT audits?
The different IT audit types include:
- Security audits to uncover threats and risky behavior.
- Compliance audits to demonstrate adherence to regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, or SOX.
- Access audits to verify least privilege.
- Operational audits to ensure processes and configurations support system stability and performance.
