See who has access to what in SharePoint.
Browse your SharePoint sites, inspect permissions and find access that needs a closer look. Binera SharePoint Explorer (BSE) brings the site structure, users, groups and roles into one practical workspace.
Start with a site, folder or document in BSE. When you need to review a larger area, configure a scan in BSE and use BSE Analyzer to prioritize the collected results.
Browse the structure. See the access.
Choose a SharePoint site and navigate its libraries, folders, files and pages. Select an item to see the permissions retrieved from SharePoint. You can investigate individual items without first running a scan.
Find permission exceptions
See where folders and documents have unique permissions rather than inheriting the setup above them. An exception is a reason to investigate, not automatically an error.
Understand group-based access
Expand groups to see their members and assigned roles, or use the users-only view to focus on the people with access to the selected item.
Prepare an owner review
Search and filter the access information, then export the relevant results for discussion with the people responsible for the content.
Review more than one item at a time.
For a larger review, a BSE administrator can configure a recursive scan of a selected site or folder and the items beneath it. Scheduled site scans are managed in BSE.
Other BSE users can view existing scan configurations and open available reports when they have access. Creating, changing and deleting scan schedules requires BSE administrator permissions.
Large scans can take time. Check completion status before using a report; scheduling and operating details belong in the administrator manual.
BSE Analyzer helps you decide where to start.
Analyzer is the analysis part of the BSE workflow. It uses the permission data collected by BSE to highlight high-priority objects, external exposure and account concerns.
- Start with Risk priorities and Top risk objects.
- Open Why this score? to understand a finding.
- Follow access from an object to a person or group.
- Export a focused list for follow-up.
A high score means review first, not remove access automatically. Analyzer does not change SharePoint permissions.
Keep the scope and timing clear.
Direct inspection in BSE
The access view relates to the item you select in the SharePoint structure. Select another item to inspect its permissions.
One or several scanned areas
An Analyzer package can combine scans from several sites or areas. It covers the data included in that package, not automatically the whole tenant.
Reports are snapshots
Access may have changed since collection. Check scan dates, scope and warnings. Missing or incomplete data does not mean there are no risks.
Already using BSE? See the BSE user manual for navigation and access views, or the administrator manual for scan management.
See BSE in practice.
Book a walkthrough of the full workflow: browse a SharePoint site, inspect access, see how scanning is configured and review the results in Analyzer. Or request access to the prepared BSE demo environment.
