About File Analysis
File Analysis is part of DataSecurity Plus, a unified data security platform. It provides deep insights for enhancing file security and storage management.

Analyze file storage
Locate stale and non-business files, analyze file storage patterns, view reports on file type distribution, and more.
Spot file security issues
Check effective permissions, and identify files and folders allowing unrestricted access, inconsistencies in permission propagation, and more.
Spot potential ransomware infections
Detect ransomware file extensions with the help of our built-in, up-to-date library. Automate a suitable response to isolate infected files.
