ADManager Plus’s Active Directory Delegation
Managing Active Directory is quite a challenge for any administrator. With no scope for errors, scores of mundane, repetitive tasks and the narrowing timeframes for completing tasks, it becomes almost impossible for the administrator alone to handle all Active Directory management activities.
The only sensible way out is Active Directory Delegation, which enables the administrator to delegate simple tasks to other administrators, helpdesk technicians or even technically naïve users or HR personnel, and allow the administrators to concentrate on the more vital and pressing tasks and yet retain a firm control over the entire Active Directory environment.
ADManager Plus offers a safe and effective delegation model that makes any technician or even a non-technical user work like an AD administrator! But the administrator will still retain the full control over the tasks, the delegated technician and the entire Active Directory environment. What’s more, all the access privileges a delegated agent needs are bypassed through the product; so there is no necessity for elevating rights for the agent in the Active Directory.
OU Based Delegation
Role Based Delegation
Non-Invasive AD Delegation
ADManager Plus also allows the administrators to delegate to helpdesk technicians, the rights to perform the specified tasks, only in specific OUs. The OU based delegation prevents the technicians from making any changes or execute tasks in other OUs apart from the ones in which they are authorized to.
Advantages of OU based delegation:
Each technician can be delegated to one or multiple OUs.
Each technician can perform a different set of tasks in different OUs.
Complete audit trail for each technician, for each OU assigned.
Increased granular delegation of administrative power.
