Integrate
OfficeScan with your
Microsoft™ Active Directory™ structure to manage
OfficeScan clients more
efficiently, assign web console permissions using Active Directory
accounts, and determine which
clients do
not have security software installed. All users in the network domain
can have secure access to the
OfficeScan console.
You can also configure limited access to specific users, even those
in another domain. The authentication process and the encryption
key provide validation of credentials for users.
Active Directory integration allows you to take full advantage
of the following features:
-
Role-based administration: Assign
specific administrative responsibilities to users by granting them
access to the product console using their Active Directory accounts.
For details, see
Role-based Administration.
-
Custom client groups: Use Active
Directory or IP addresses to manually group
clients and map them
to domains in the
OfficeScan client tree. For details,
see
Automatic Client Grouping.
-
Outside server management: Ensure
that computers in the network that are not managed by the
OfficeScan server comply with
your company’s security guidelines. For details, see
Security Compliance for Unmanaged Endpoints.
