NetIQ AD Bridge provides new capabilities for an effective and consistent security strategy by extending Active Directory’s management and delegation features and Linux resource rules to include the following capabilities, and more:
- Server management - turns manual, fragmented processes and scripts into a unified server management strategy by applying familiar and effective AD Server controls to Linux resources;
- User management - implements familiar controls for AD users and uses the same identity to access both Windows and Linux resources, maintaining best practices for Identity and Access management;
- Policy enforcement - introduces a process by which unmanaged Linux resources fall under the control of AD Group policies to ensure that security policies are applied and enforced consistently for each identity in the organization;
- Complete audit coverage - allows recording of administrative and authorization activity across the entire environment, including Linux. This improves overall visibility when logs need to be accessed for verification, troubleshooting or audits;
- Enhanced reporting - allows you to generate compatible reports that include Linux and Windows data. This can ease the process of implementing management and compliance orders.
