As a primary identity source, Microsoft® Active Directory (AD) is often used for user authentication. However, effective security also requires granular access management. This is important for two reasons. First, it helps you control privileged users who require root and other functional accounts to administer servers. Second, it enables you to control end users accessing multiple applications.
By using Core Privileged Access Manager (BoKS) to add access management to active directory, you can enforce authorization and authentication of everyone seeking access to your IT assets while simplifying user authentication.
Core Privileged Access Manager (BoKS) provides a seamless way to add fine-grained access controls and privileged access management to your active directory processes. AD bridge capabilities make it easy to synchronize user account information between AD and the BoKS infrastructure, leveraging AD as the authoritative source of information. Access control administration, enforcement, and auditing is handled by Core Privileged Access Manager (BoKS).

The benefits of Microsoft AD bridging
Meet Compliance Requirements
Reduce Admin Overhead
Save time by allowing Microsoft Active Directory-trained help desk teams to administer Linux/UNIX accounts within AD, without logging into Linux/UNIX infrastructure.
Prevent Breaches
Protect sensitive information by consolidating user account data to be mastered within AD, and auto provisioning across Linux and UNIX infrastructures.
