The template scans directories using Windows Shares and SFTP/SSH to create file access, file attribute and file content baselines then continually re-scans to let you know when a file is accessed, modified or deleted.
The File Integrity Monitor Template uses Windows Shares, SFTP or FTP/Sdepending on the host type to scan directories on Windows, Unix, Linux and other operating systems. Access Permissions are scanned on Windows Servers using WMI.
