File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) in Mauritius
Know immediately when a critical file, setting or configuration changes - and whether that change was authorised.
- FIM
- File integrity
- Change detection
- PCI DSS
Overview
What is File Integrity Monitoring?
Attackers change things: they plant web shells, alter system binaries, add accounts and modify configurations. File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) watches your critical files and settings, compares them with a trusted baseline, and alerts you to unexpected changes.
NSC deploys and tunes FIM so it highlights what matters - unauthorised changes on servers, network devices and applications - without drowning your team in routine updates.

What is File Integrity Monitoring?
FIM detects changes to important files and configurations by comparing them with a known-good baseline and alerting on unexpected modifications.
Is FIM required for PCI DSS?
Yes. PCI DSS requires a change-detection mechanism such as FIM on critical system files, configuration files and content files.
Will FIM create too many alerts?
Not when it is tuned properly. We filter routine, approved changes so your team sees what needs attention.
