File Activity Monitoring Challenges

Why file access visibility matters

Blind Spots in File Access

No visibility into who is accessing sensitive files, when, from where. Cannot answer "who touched this file?" during investigations.

Insider Threat Detection

Malicious insiders slowly accumulate sensitive files before departure. Traditional tools miss gradual, low-and-slow data theft.

Compliance & Audit Requirements

GDPR Article 30, HIPAA, SOX require documented file access logs. Native OS audit logs incomplete, difficult to analyze.

Slow Incident Response

After breach detection, reconstructing "what happened" takes days. No forensic timeline of file operations.

TRIAS Activity Analysis

AI-powered file monitoring and analytics

01

Comprehensive File Tracking

Monitor all file operations: access, read, write, copy, move, delete, rename, share. Capture user, timestamp, location, device, application.

02

User Behavior Analytics

Machine learning establishes baseline behavior per user. Detect deviations: unusual file access patterns, bulk downloads, off-hours activity.

03

Real-Time Alerting

Instant alerts for high-risk activities: mass file access, sensitive data downloads, external sharing, privilege escalation.

04

Forensic Investigation

Complete audit trail for incident response. Visual timeline of file operations, user activity heat maps, automated investigation tools.

Advanced Analytics

AI-powered insights from file activity

Anomaly Detection

Machine learning identifies unusual file access patterns. Baseline normal behavior, flag deviations automatically.

Risk Scoring

Assign risk scores to users, files, activities. Prioritize high-risk events for investigation with intelligent ranking.

Trend Analysis

Visualize file access trends over time. Identify patterns, seasonal variations, abnormal spikes in activity.

Peer Group Analysis

Compare user behavior to peer groups. Detect outliers: access patterns inconsistent with role or department.

Predictive Analytics

Predict likelihood of insider threat or data loss. Early warning system based on behavioral indicators.

Automated Investigation

AI-assisted incident investigation. Automatically correlate events, identify root cause, suggest remediation.

Reports & Dashboards

File Activity Analysis Use Cases

Insider Threat Detection

Identify employees hoarding sensitive files before departure. Detect unusual access patterns, bulk downloads, off-hours activity.

Data Breach Investigation
