ABSTRACT:
Methods and systems are provided for defining and creating an automatic file security policy and a semi-automatic method of managing file access control in organizations with multiple diverse access control models and multiple diverse file server protocols. The system monitors access to storage elements within the network. The recorded data traffic is analyzed to assess simultaneous data access groupings and user groupings, which reflect the actual organizational structure. The learned structure is then transformed into a dynamic file security policy, which is constantly adapted to organizational changes over time. The system provides a decision assistance interface for interactive management of the file access control and for tracking abnormal user behavior.
