Active Directory User

You can map any Active Directory (AD) user to Acqueon Workspace for authentication and access purposes.

An Active Directory user is created and maintained in the active directory of an enterprise. The access is through LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol). The enterprise is responsible to set a password and monitor the account validity. The AD user gets access to Workspace when the authentication with Active Directory Administrator is successful.
