10 steps for cleaning up Active Directory user accounts

Active Directory forms the foundation of identity and access management for most organizations, and as such is one of the most crucial technologies on the network. Hi. I'm Alison Main, Product Marketing for Identity and Access Management Solutions at Dell Software. As more systems and applications come to depend on Active Directory for authentication authorization, AD security becomes critical to controlling risk and ensuring compliance. Maintaining Active Directory security composes a challenge for organizations, especially when it comes user accounts, which can be difficult to maintain because they have to mirror employee life cycle events but aren't automatically updated when employees change positions or move on. This leads to accounts that are outdated, have inappropriate access rights, or are out of compliance with security practices and policies, and that exposes the entire organization to security risks. But in the new white paper, "10 Steps to Cleaning Up Active Directory User Accounts and Keeping Them That Way," author Randy Franklin Smith explains how you can fix Active Directory user account problems and keep them from coming back. Randy also explains how ActiveRoles through Dell Software eliminates your reliance on the manual processes that are the root cause of so many AD user account problems. So download the white paper now and learn how you can increase security while simplifying Active Directory management.
