What does the NTFS do?

Anyone who works with a Windows operating system may already have come across the term NTFS. Behind the abbreviation is a system that structures data and enables you to find it quickly.

But what exactly is NTFS? And what should you consider for authorisation management in your company?

What is a NTFS?

The New Technology File System, NTFS for short, is a proprietary file system from Microsoft. It organises data on the drive, hard disks or other data carriers and offers around two terabytes of storage capacity for a partition.

In its current form – and as a Microsoft (further) development – NTFS is mainly used in Windows operating systems. Information on stored files such as their attributes (metadata) is stored under NTFS in a Master File Table (MFT).

Access Management in NTFS

Which user has access to certain files? By means of an access control list (ACL), administrators can assign permissions in NTFS and obtain an overview of the rights situation.

Historically grown authorisation structures make it difficult to analyse access rights. It is not always clear who received permissions when and from whom.

Deleted accounts, nested Active Directory groups – all this makes it difficult to clearly identify current permissions.

Our solution for you

The free NTFS Permission Analyser supports you in this challenge. Are you aiming for an analysis of permission structures, a file server migration or a restructuring of the file servers? The tool helps you to get a first overview of NTFS.

And this is how it works:

  • select any part of your file servers for a scan

  • start the process with the NTFS Permission Analyzer

  • export the result to an Excel format (contains, among other things, all NTFS permissions per folder and user).

  • evaluate the analysis and finally get transparency about your entitlement situation

Good to know

The scan and analysis of the permission structure include permissions that are nested to any depth as well as users authorised directly in NTFS and permissions that have been assigned via nested AD groups. The NTFS Permission Analyzer also detects possible circular relationships in AD groups during the scan and can automatically clean up orphaned SIDs (zombie users).

Do you know your current permission situation?

We provide you with an overview with a comprehensive tool-supported structural analysis of the Windows file systems.

With our Permission Audit, we shed light on your historically grown authorisation structures.
