NetIQ's Directory Security Administrator provides innovative Active Directory permissions management capabilities, which include powerful role-based security, auditing and advanced analysis.

The Business Problem

Active Directory permission management is one of the foundations to effectively securing your network. But as you may have already discovered, developing and maintaining an effective Active Directory Access Control List (ACL) for your ever-changing network is nearly impossible without the right tools. Some issues you may be facing include:

• Security gaps in the network as a result of ineffective management of ACLs
• A dynamic environment with roles and permissions constantly changing
• Poor control over integrity of the information stored on your network

The NetIQ Solution

NetIQ's Directory Security Administrator enables you to simply and effectively manage permissions and ACLs using role-based security functionality. Using its straightforward, graphic interface, you can search, audit, analyze and modify permissions, thereby reducing the security exposure that configuration errors can cause.
