Features and BenefitsQuest Authentication Services (formerly Vintela Authentication Services) | Active Directory for Unix/Linux/Mac – Use patented technology to extend the authentication, authorization, and administration infrastructure of Active Directory to the rest of the enterprise, allowing Unix, Linux, and Mac systems to act as full citizens within Active Directory. | | Single Sign-on– Natively implement Kerberos and LDAP on Unix, Linux, and Mac systems in the same way those standards are used in Windows. In addition, the product provides out-of-the-box single sign-on for a number of applications (such as SAP, Siebel, Oracle databases, and DB2). | | NIS Migration and Directory Consolidation – Streamline the process of joining Unix/Linux/Mac systems and users to the Active Directory domain and facilitate migration from multiple authentication mechanisms (including NIS), identities, and directories to a single Active Directory-based infrastructure for all systems and users. | | Compliance and Security – Address many of the compliance and security concerns with heterogeneous enterprises and Unix/Linux/Mac authentication mechanisms including a robust and scalable alternative to NIS as well as delivering the Kerberos and LDAP authentication offered by Active Directory for non-Windows systems. | | Group Policy for Unix/Linux/Mac – Leverage a framework for extending the powerful capabilities of policy-based management (through Windows Group Policy) to non-Windows systems. Including comprehensive Group Policy for Mac OS X. | | Simplifying Identity and Access Management – Use enabling technology to allow organizations to simplify identity management based on an existing investment in Active Directory and Active Directory-optimized identity administration tools. In addition, Quest Authentication Services can dramatically simplify an existing meta-directory, security framework, or synchronization solution. | | Deployment Flexibility- Implement Authentication Services in the manner and at the pace optimized for your environment, objectives, challenges, and timelines. Options range from a non-impact, "schemaless" deployment to a fully rationalized, "get to one" environment. | | Access Control - Extend the native access control capabilities of Active Directory to non-Windows systems. The very fact that Unix. Linux, and Mac systems have joined the Active Directory domain provides the immediate benefit of central control over which AD user is permitted to authenticate to which non-Windows system. |
