About PingCastle
PingCastle is a security assessment and auditing tool for CISOs, Security Auditors, and IT Professionals working with Active Directory and Entra ID.
Netwrix offers various products to help protect your network infrastructure. PingCastle focuses specifically on assessment. It collects comprehensive information from your Active Directory and Entra ID environments, analyzes this data for security risks and misconfigurations, and generates detailed reports with actionable findings.
These reports help you identify and prioritize security issues that need remediation, giving you clear visibility into your security posture and enabling data-driven decisions to improve your environment's security.
This documentation covers PingCastle Community, the edition you run with PingCastle.exe. For the other PingCastle editions, see PingCastle Enterprise and PingCastle Pro.
PingCastle.exe is also the data collector for PingCastle Enterprise and PingCastle Pro, so these pages apply to all editions. The Enterprise and Pro documentation link here instead of repeating this content.
