New version of NetWhyz auditing tool released
NetWhyz
version 2 has just been released. The major feature of the
new release is the functionality to push” the Agent onto
networked Windows 2000 and XP machines directly from the
Admin Console. This enhances the existing methods of login
scripts, e-mail and manual execution, and significantly
reduces overall deployment time. Another deployment feature
of NetWhyz version 2 is the Network Detector which regularly
checks the network for live PC’s and servers. An Excel
exception report lists all those PC’s / Servers that are
found but which are not yet in the NetWhyz database. This
helps to manage the deployment, significantly speeding up
the process and ensuring that all machines are included. A
standalone PC’s version allows information from
non-networked PC’s to also be included in the database.
Other new functionality available in NetWhyz version 2,
includes saving reports as templates, wildcard file search
and auto allocation of PC location based on IP address.
NetWhyz has also been positioned more aggressively as audit
software for compliance reporting and negotiations are in
progress with several major IT companies and Accounting
practices to exclusively use NetWhyz for network auditing.
The new software licence management functionality allows
companies to closely control their software compliance.
NetWhyz can also be integrated with third party helpdesks
such as HEAT, Remedy etc, to populate the helpdesk fields
with information on hardware and software.
