UNIX / Linux Identity Management

Reduce risk and streamline operations by eliminating redundant identity stores and tying access controls and superuser privileges to a single, centrally managed Active Directory identity

• Identity Management
  Consolidate disparate UNIX and Linux identity stores into Active Directory to streamline operations and enforce separation of duties.
• Superuser Privilege Management
  Implement a least-privilege security model for Linux and UNIX systems with flexible, role-based controls that protect privileged operations while still granting users the privileges they need to perform their job.
• Security Policy Enforcement
  Centrally enforce security and configuration policies across Linux, UNIX and Mac systems using familiar Windows Group Policy tools.
• NIS-to-Active-Directory Migration
  Replace NIS with Active Directory — a fault-tolerant LDAP database that seamlessly integrates Kerberos-based authentication — to enhance security while simplifying your environment.

3-Part Webinar Series What Gartner Says About Using Active Directory for Centralized Authentication, Auditing and SSO

"The combination of Active Directory and Centrify DirectControl gives us a really powerful single authentication solution across a highly mixed environment. Although there are other ways to do this, we've had good success with this solution."
