NetIQ eDirectory is the foundation for the world's largest identity management deployments, and is a high-end directory service that allows businesses to manage identities and security access for employees, customers, and partners. With eDirectory, businesses lay the groundwork for secure identity management solutions and multi-platform network services.
NetIQ eDirectory complies with the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol version 3 (LDAP v3) standard. eDirectory supports several open standards which helps organizations maximize their technology investments and avoid getting locked in to any particular vendor's product set.
With eDirectory, you have real-time control over users' access to network resources. If you terminate their access to the network, they will be instantly locked out. Swift, precise control over users and resources helps block unauthorized access and saves you money. eDirectory also provides a very flexible security framework, including support for any combination of biometrics, smart cards, tokens, digital certificates, and other authentication methods.
Only NetIQ eDirectory provides top-to-bottom business continuity assurances. eDirectory includes automated self-maintenance to catch and correct minor errors, as well as industry-leading multi-master data replication to ensure always-on failover capabilities. And finally, eDirectory can back up its data while the system is online, facilitating comprehensive disaster recovery in the event of a large-scale outage.
NetIQ eDirectory has been publicly scaled to one billion identities. This means that as your business grows, eDirectory can easily accommodate additional identities without any performance degradation.
NetIQ eDirectory provides flexible, centralized management of users, resources, devices, and policies. Its management console, NetIQ iManager, provides secure, Web-based access to all administration functions. This feature eliminates both administrative redundancy and unnecessary travel, saving you time and money.
