File & Folder Access Governance
NTFS permissions with an approval trail.
Bring Windows file share access under the same governance as everything else: requestable, approved in tiers, applied consistently, and reviewed.
Product review
Interactive preview of the Rivitan portal — the same navigation and surfaces operators use, filled with realistic demo data.
File & NTFS Governance — permission lookup, folder policies, self-service access, and audit trail.
What this portal covers
- Dashboard hub · permission lookup, advanced tools, path explorer
- Permission lookup & edit on UNC paths
- Advanced NTFS · effective rights, ACL diff, bulk ops, snapshots
- Path explorer · folder inventory and size scans
- NTFS audit trail · actor, path, before/after ACEs
- Folder security policies · owners, approvers, tiers
- Folder access portal · self-service with fulfillment
- File-server credential vaulting for remote ACL work
The problem
Shared drive permissions are the least governed access in most organisations. Requests are handled by whoever is free, ACLs are edited directly, inheritance breaks, and nobody can answer who has access to the finance folder.
What the platform does
- Folder access requests tied to the people who own the data
- Tiered approval chains with fallback approver groups
- Controlled execution of the resulting NTFS permission change
- Dedicated File & NTFS Governance portal with hub navigation
- Permission lookup, advanced ACL tools, and path explorer
- Folder security policies with owners and approver tiers
- Self-service folder access portal with automated fulfillment
- NTFS audit trail and file-server credential management
- Scheduled NTFS health checks to catch drift and broken inheritance
Who this is for
Windows-heavy organisations where file shares hold regulated or sensitive data.
