KBI 310297 Argent for Security Shows Incorrect User In Reports
Version
Argent for Security
Date
10 Jan 2012
Summary
When Argent for Security detects changes within a shared folder or drive on machine A, the logged-in user on machine A is incorrectly saved as the person who made the change.
In reality, this file could have been changed remotely by a completely different user from another machine via UNC paths or mapped drives.
In any case, Argent for Security only detects and displays the current logged-in user into all reports.
Technical Background
This is a known limitation of Microsoft’s file change APIs
Resolution
Argent is working on a solution for this.
