aclEZ – notes develop domino data tool

Overview

The common problems with Lotus Domino ACLs

Access Control List management is simple enough if your organization is tiny and unchanging with no important data to protect. But in the real world, Notes-based organizations have a large number (often hundreds) of databases on many servers, coupled with a unique and complex mesh of security requirements. Managing an organization’s ACLs manually is a tedious, time‑consuming activity that's prone to serious human error—like security loopholes or errant access denial.

Ytria aclEZ is the solution for better Domino ACL security administration, here's what it lets you do:

Get a bird's-eye-view of global server security instantly—rather than spending hours poring over hundreds of ACLs individually—thanks to its powerful ACL diagnostics features
Find and close any security hole instantly. Imagine if an administration error gave unfettered access to a highly sensitive database—these things do happen, but aclEZ lets you spot these problems and fix them immediately
Expand your administration capabilities—superior tools let you tune security in ways that are just not possible using the native Domino administration toolset
Powerful mass-modification features help you maintain consistency across your organization's ACLs
