1. Introduction Active Directory Manager Pro - For every organization identity and access management is far more then a security technology. Identity management gives the users and applications access to the right access information. It is critical to ensure that the right and appropriate permissions are in place for users and applications. This is a major factor in driving regulatory compliance initiatives. Building and managing identity strategy can be complex because it touches all users, applications, resources of the companies and customers. Majority of enterprises faces challenges in maintaining consistent policies thereby incurring high administrative cost and direct impact on security and compliance requirements. CionSystems Active Directory Manager Pro provides a simple and cost effective identity management solution to help you manage accounts across Microsoft directory services. With CionSystems Active Directory Manager Pro you can: Centrally manage identities (users, passwords, computers, contacts, groups, OU, GPO, Exchange, terminal server, site, schema, ACL and more) across Windows - saving time, money and resources. Automate the provisioning process across Windows platforms to reduce costly errors. Manage enterprise-wide password policies, and reduce costly calls to the help desk. Automate Role-Based Access Management. Tighten Security and Auditing processes. Perform global Search and Replace. Reports - Complying with regulatory requirement can be a very complex, time-consuming and expensive. Generating reports for the compliance may not be a cakewalk. It will require accessing a glut of raw data coming from numerous organizations and making sense out of it. Additionally keeping the Identity Management running smoothly requires administrators to know the state of the Active Directory Systems on a proactive basis. A reactive solution can turn out to be a very expensive ordeal for organization as it can effect applications, users and network productivity. Built-in Active Directory auditing lacks many important features and doesn't have reporting capabilities. CionSystems Active Directory Manager Pro helps with compliance and day to day status check by accessing and presenting the raw data into meaningful reports that allows administrator, senior management and auditors to gain correct insight into the Windows Active Directory Infrastructure.
