The solution delivers real-time monitoring of configuration and file changes, validates systems against benchmarks such as CIS and DISA STIG, and generates automated compliance reports to reduce audit preparation time. By correlating actual system activity with approved change requests through ITSM integrations, Change Tracker distinguishes planned from unplanned changes and helps reduce operational noise.
With centralized visibility across hybrid infrastructure, Netwrix Change Tracker helps preserve system integrity, prevent configuration drift, and strengthen overall security posture.
