Active Directory (AD)
Infrastructure Assessment
Save Up To $100k With An Active Directory (AD) Infrastructure Assessment
Many companies and organizations have standardized their environment using Microsoft’s Active Directory as the primary authentication and authorization infrastructure. While AD is based upon a Windows architecture, flexibility is built in to be able to integrate other authentication technologies such as Mac and many versions of Unix.
An assessment of an AD architecture that has been in place for some time often leads to major cost savings for our clients. We recommend modifications to the original setup to remedy inefficiencies, provide risk versus reward analyses for implementing upgrades, and a list of updates to address the current needs of the organization.
