In the pursuit of security and limiting the needless right's of users, I am
investigating what kind of local permissions are needed by my Windows XP
users. Currently all users have local Administrator rights to their PC's.
If anyone aware of a tool or simple method that can determine if users need
local administrator rights? For example, a tool that will notify you if the
application made a change to the registry or wrote to program files in a way
that only administrators can do? My users span several different networks
and the applications are all accross the board.
My last resort is to call the vendors of the applications being used, but
this will be quite a burden. If anyone has any ideas to better anyalyze
this, please let me know.
Thank you!
