Integrating Linux on System z environments into Active Directory with Centrify Suite

Red Hat Ready In this webinar cohosted by Red Hat, you'll find out how to centrally manage the identities, access rights and privileges of users in Linux on System z environments by using Microsoft Active Directory. Learn why more than 1,000 companies, including 38% of the Fortune 50, have already implemented the Centrify Suite to improve IT efficiency, strengthen compliance initiatives and centrally secure their heterogeneous computing environment.

Topics

Corey Williams, Centrify Director of Product Management, will outline how to leverage Active Directory to:

  • Centrally manage and provision Linux users directly from Active Directory
  • Authenticate users and provide single sign-on
  • Configure Linux using Windows Group Policy
  • Control access based on a user's role
  • Provide granular privileged command access without sharing the root password or using the su or sudo commands

Who Should Attend

  • Administrators who are interested in learning more about how to reliably and robustly integrate with Active Directory
  • IT managers and architects who are interested in leveraging their existing investment in Active Directory to realize new value and cost savings
  • Security managers who want to ensure the compliance and adherence to security policies for systems deployed on Linux for System z
