Simplify password management in Active Directory with ADSelfService Plus
Active Directory is a directory service developed by Microsoft, providing structured information about objects on Windows domain networks and enabling easy management of network resources. Integrating ADSelfService Plus with Active Directory allows organizations to synchronize users' AD passwords with other applications or even between multiple AD domains. This integration helps administrators enforce strong, consistent password policies across all systems to enhance protection and compliance.
Password synchronization across AD and other systems
Automatically sync users' AD passwords with other enterprise applications or between different AD domains, ensuring that credentials are always up to date across systems.
Enforce strong password policies
Implement robust password policies, including breached password protection, to ensure that users' passwords meet high security standards across all applications and AD domains.
Eliminate credential fatigue
Simplify access for users by synchronizing passwords, allowing them to use their AD credentials across various systems without the need to manage multiple passwords.
