Many corporate security policies require that Active Directory user accounts must be disabled after 31 days of inactivity. This is a good practice; doing so keeps Active Directory secure and clean. For example, someone can create a user account, leave it untouched for many days, and then use it to perform malicious activity against an organization. Another example is employee retirement: User accounts are usually disabled when an employee quits an organization. Most HR databases only keep information about "primary" user account, but what if a user had additional user accounts?
Inactive Users Tracker automates the management of inactive user accounts. The program periodically checks all user accounts in specified domains, reports to you, and automatically disables all accounts inactive for more than a specified number of days.
This product has two important features:
- Checks all users in your domains and reports those accounts that have been inactive for a specified number of days.
- Automatically disables user accounts based on inactivity.
To detect inactivity, the tool checks the "lastLogon" attribute of every account, which represents the last time a user was authenticated by a specific DC. AD doesnt replicate this attribute; as a result, the lastLogon value will be different on each DC. Inactive Users Tracker handles this correctly: It queries all DCs in the domain and uses the most recent logon time, also called the "true last logon".
Inactive Users Tracker is provided free of charge for unlimited use by organizations and individuals.

Active Directory change auditing is an important procedure for limiting unauthorized changes and errors to AD configuration. One single change can put your organization at risk, introducing security breaches and compliance issues. Built-in Active Directory auditing lacks many important features and doesnt have reporting capabilities. Careful analysis of multi-megabyte Security logs can take enormous resources and still never paint the whole picture.
NetWrix Active Directory Change Reporter is a free tool that reports the changes made to Active Directory and delivers a summary and detailed information on a daily basis. The report includes the 4 "W"s - Who, What, When, and Where - of all changes and includes "before" and "after" values for each setting. This report lists changes made to AD and Exchange configurations, mailboxes, AD schema, and many more.
Generated data can be used to:
- Monitor day-to-day administrative activities.
- Prepare compliance reports for your SOX, GLBA and HIPAA auditors.
NetWrix Active Directory Change Reporter records all modifications, including both user and administrative activity, and e-mails daily reports to AD administrators detailing every Active Directory change. Collected audit data is archived and can be stored for years, so you can build a summary of changes made to Active Directory during any period and drill down to detailed information as necessary. This archiving function allows organizations to analyze any policy violations, adhere to security best practices and maintain established internal policies.
The tool is provided free of charge for use by organizations and individuals.
