What it does

Read-only by design

Runs purely read-only queries — it never changes an ACL, a group, or anything else.

Share & folder scanning

Point it at your file shares and it maps effective permissions folder by folder.

Group untangling

Resolves nested AD groups so you see the real people behind every permission.

Risk flags

Highlights Everyone and Domain Users grants, broken inheritance and orphaned SIDs.

Audit-ready exports

Clean PDF and Excel reports that auditors actually accept.

Fully offline

Runs inside your network. Nothing about your directory ever leaves it.

Questions, answered

Does it change anything in my directory?
No. AD Permissions Reporter is strictly read-only — it queries AD and file ACLs and writes nothing back, ever.
Do I need Domain Admin rights?
No. Any account that can read AD and list the shares you want to scan is enough.
Is this a one-time purchase?
Yes — pay once and it's yours, with a full year of free updates included.
Where does the scan data go?
It stays on the machine you run the scan from. No uploads, no cloud, no account.
