Empower your help desk teams to handle routine AD tasks like password resets, account unlocks, or user updates, without full admin rights. Define exactly what each role can do, where, and for whom, ensuring controlled autonomy and faster issue resolution.
Enforce access policies by mapping users to predefined roles within the Active Directory. Each role defines specific permissions, streamlining privilege assignment, minimizing manual errors, and ensuring least-privilege compliance.
Get complete visibility into user logins, failed attempts, and lockout events. Detect anomalies early and prevent unauthorized access with continuous monitoring.
Easily view, assign, or revoke permissions from one console. Implement the principle of least privilege and ensure that access aligns with current job functions.
Set up multi-level approval workflows for access changes or delegation requests. Automate reviews and approvals to maintain compliance without slowing operations.
Track every delegated action with detailed audit trails. Export reports for security reviews, audits, and compliance documentation.
When too many people have elevated privileges, the line between convenience and risk disappears. Managing access manually often leads to:
Allow HR to create and update user accounts for new hires or exits directly in AD, following predefined templates and approval flows. This ensures quick onboarding without waiting on IT.
Delegate password resets, account unlocks, and profile updates to the help desk. Reduce dependency on admins while maintaining complete visibility into all performed actions.
Give department heads control to add or remove users from their own security and distribution groups. Keep team access aligned with real-time organizational needs.
Track who changed what, when, and where. Generate audit-ready reports that simplify compliance reviews and strengthen your AD security posture.
Offload repetitive user management tasks to HR or help desk teams through secure delegation. Free up IT admins to focus on critical infrastructure and strategy.
Apply least privilege principles across users, groups, and OUs. Prevent over-permissioning, monitor privilege escalation, and respond faster to suspicious activity.
Maintain detailed logs of all delegated activities, approvals, and logins. Generate audit-ready reports on demand to simplify compliance checks and security reviews.
Automate approvals and access assignments for onboarding, role changes, and offboarding. Cut delays, reduce manual errors, and keep access aligned with user roles.
Manage every AD permission, login event, and delegated task from a single dashboard. Get real-time insights into who has access, what they’re doing, and when they did it.
Manage access, delegation, audits, and workflows from one console. No need to switch tools or run scripts to complete basic administrative tasks.
Assign permissions based on predefined roles such as HR, IT Technician, or Department Manager. Simplify access assignment and maintain consistency across your AD.
