Access and Authorization services provide a security framework for controlling who can use IT resources and what degree of activities, resources, or services they are permitted.

Directories

ITD manages two primary directory services:

Microsoft Active Directory

A Windows Operating System directory service that facilitates working with interconnected, complex, and different network resources in a unified manner.  Active Directory provides a common interace for organizing/maintaining data and controlling access to users based on security policies.

LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)

An open standard used to manage application authentication and authorization for external users.
