What is the advantage of NTFS over FAT

You must use the NTFS file system on domain controllers. In addition, any servers that
have any partition formatted with FAT or FAT32 will lack many security features. For
example, on FAT or FAT32 partitions, a shared folder can be protected only by the
permissions set on the share, not on individual files, and there is no software protection
against local access to the partition.
