User Group Membership change Alert

Question

As a system administrator, I will like to be alerted when a user's group membership has changed on the domain. Can Spiceworks compare the imported memberships in its database with AD and alert me when they do not match? Below is an image of the information that SW imports which could be used for this comparison.

Assuming you know the dn of the groups to remove the person from and add them to, and the dn of the person to move, you should be able to do something similar to:
Attributes attrs = new BasicAttributes(true);
Attribute uniquemember = new BasicAttribute("uniquemember");
uniquemember.add("uid=user,o=domain.com"); //add user to move to attribute
attrs.put(uniquemember);
DirContext ctx = //connect to your ldap dir
try{
     ctx.modifyAttributes(groupToRemoveFromDN, ctx.REMOVE_ATTRIBUTE, attrs);
     ctx.modifyAttributes(groupToAddToDN, ctx.ADD_ATTRIBUTE,attrs);
catch (NamingException ne) {
     //return error appropriately
try{
     ctx.close();
catch (NamingException ne) {
     //do what you want with error
