Overview

Identity intelligence for compliance and trust

Eviden Directory Audit is an identity intelligence and audit platform that collects, correlates, and reports on identity events from across the enterprise IT estate. It gives security and compliance teams a complete, tamper-evident record of every identity change: account creation and deletion, access grants and revocations, password changes, role assignments, and authentication events: across directories, IAM systems, and target applications. Eviden Directory Audit transforms raw identity event data into structured, searchable audit trails and compliance reports, providing the evidence required by GDPR, SOX, NIS2, HIPAA, and other regulatory frameworks. It integrates with Eviden Analytics for IAM for deeper risk analysis and visualisation.
