Dynamics requires system administrator access for limited reasons with user administration being one of the most vulnerable.

Eliminate potential security conflicts by taking all user administration out of Dynamics with Fastpath Config AD. By fully integrating Dynamics security with Active Directory, Fastpath Config AD eliminates ‘sa’ and Administrator access for better security management reducing the security risk. 

Setting up users in Active Directory streamlines new hire set-up because administrators no longer need access to GP.  Set up the user, assign a role, and password to Dynamics from Active Directory.  The administrator doesn’t even need to know how to use Dynamics.  On the flip side, when a user leaves, once you delete or deactivate them from Active Directory it automatically removes their access to Dynamics which reduces administration and enforces an additional layer of security.

It also secures end user access.

Fastpath Config AD allows Dynamics GP users to log into Dynamics with their network usernames and passwords, thereby eliminating security risks such as writing down passwords next to the workstation.   This creates the ability to use single sign on which means a user, if given adequate permission, no longer needs to rekey username and password information which further enforces a user only has access to their information.

Monitoring who is updating information or making transactional changes is a critical component of the security review. Review or audit Dynamics with Fastpath Audit Trail.

Fastpath Audit trail will monitor who is adding, changing, or deleting important data and keep a log of the before/after values of each update, including any SQL schema changes. Additionally, use Audit Trail to track who is logging into the system and when.  Not only will this ensure data accuracy but allow for monitoring new staff for errors.  Additionally, unusual activity may be an indicator of fraud.

Fastpath makes it easy to review security with the reports available through Assure.  Assure provides security reports by functional and operational area or by user, making it easier than ever to know who has access to what in Dynamics.

Fastpath Assure analyzes segregation of duties conflicts in Microsoft Dynamics AX, Dynamics GP, Dynamics NAV, and Dynamics SL.  Fastpath Assure includes pre-built rule-sets defined for each ERP application which not only identifies risk areas but creates the documentation and mitigation strategies for managing the analysis. Fastpath’s methodology for continuous compliance ensures accurate and fast results for every audit.
