Creating a User Account in Active Directory
How to open/launch Active Directory….
Welcome@123
When a new user is onboarded, we need to assign him/her an identiry that can be used to login to Domain Joined resources.
The account creation in Active Directory is Identity Management. Access management is a different topic.
In Identity and Access Management, there is an Identity provider which is Active Directory in this case. For provisioning access as what a user can access inside an organization is managed by Access Management. There is a scope of Access Management using Active Directory, however, it is limited.
Microsoft AD is a critical component of IAM, providing a centralized location for managing user identities and access permissions within the network. It allows administrators to control who has access to what resources and provides a single point of authentication for users within the organization.
AD can be integrated with other IAM tools such as single sign-on (SSO) and identity governance and administration (IGA) solutions. SSO solutions allow users to log in once and access multiple applications and resources without having to log in again. IGA solutions provide a way for administrators to manage user identities and access permissions across multiple systems and applications.
AD also provides a way for organizations to enforce security policies and compliance requirements. For example, it can be used to enforce password policies that require users to change their passwords regularly and use strong passwords.
