Automation and Management of Active Directory

Active Directory (AD) management is one of the most important tasks in information technology management and is also one of the most complicated and stressful. The reason for this is that it involves a number of different routine activities such as provisioning, access management for different users, management of internal security processes, among others.

All these demands significantly increase the workload of the IT team, increase the occurrence of human error and impair companies’ information security.

Thinking about this led to the development of solutions that automate AD management, offering greater security for internal data and greater agility for employee routines, thus allowing the IT team to focus on other activities, such as technology development.

Active Directory by Adaxes plays a vital role in many processes within the company. For this reason, efficient and safe management of AD is increasingly important as well as increasingly challenging, particularly for larger companies that have complex processes and systems.

Tools previously used to manage Active Directory are inefficient since they only offer basic features and cannot be used to automate it. With Softerra Adaxes different domains can be managed and AD can be managed and maintained making this a much easier, safer and efficient task.

Adaxes includes two powerful tools for Active Directory management: Adaxes Administration Console and Adaxes Active Directory Web Interface. The former is a desktop application that offers a GUI (Graphical User Interface) for use by AD administrators and the later offers safe access to AD by means of a standard web browser.
