Netwrix Auditor for Active Directory: Free Community Edition
Get instant insights into changes in Active Directory and Group Policy. Our free Active Directory auditing tool is fast, flexible, and built to boost efficiency.
Faster, smarter Active Directory monitoring
Changes can slip through Active Directory unnoticed — until it’s too late and a small change leads to big consequences. Manual tracking wastes time and leaves security gaps that put your data at risk. Our free Active Directory auditing tool shows you exactly what was changed, when, and where so you can spot issues faster and take action sooner.
