We purchased Lepide's Data Security Platform to track PHI/PII - and it does a great job at that. 

Out of the box with pretty minimal tuning of alerts (which they've consistently offered us additional help for if we have specific areas we want their help tuning/adding custom rules to/etc). Some tools are INCREDIBLY frustrating with the amount of false positives they give, to the point where you get almost desensitized to the alerts and can miss legitimate alerts, but so far that hasn't been a problem with Lepide, and the spot checks we do have been mostly spot on. No tool is going to be 100% perfect, but have been super comfortable for about 3 years now knowing it's humming in the background and tracking our data.

We bought it for this primary purpose, but it came with the added benefit of AD/GPO auditing, and that saved us massively mere days after setting it up. It snapshots all accounts/groups/computer objects and their permissions on a schedule (daily, weekly, monthly, whatever you select). We worked with them to set it up on a Friday, I think it was, with the first backup scheduled for that night. The following week, an errant job wiped permissions for all computer objects and users in the domain. All computer objects had their bitlocker keys wiped also. 100% gone. Obviously we could set basic permissions back then, but group memberships controlled access to almost our entire infrastructure and it wasn't (at the time) well documented who had what.

This would've required bringing up a domain controller from backups, pulling permissions, group memberships and bitlocker information then merging it back into our current domain (as trying to do a restore from a backed up domain controller is it's own nightmare).

It took ...5 minutes worth of work to restore it all from a snapshot that had been auto-taken from a few nights before. We'd only created one or two new AD accounts in the in days between the Friday snapshot and when this happened, so those we could just manually re-create. It saved a MASSIVE headache of trying to fix the permissions, restore bitlocker keys and group memberships - it was basically select the date and restore. I am forever thankful for the time it saved me in that situation and the headaches it prevented.

They've been an absolute delight to deal with - and both our sales reps have been top notch and reachable, and always up to chat about the product, any concerns we have, roadmap, etc.

Top marks!
