Technology

The Centrify Suite lets you centrally control, secure and audit access to cross-platform systems and applications by leveraging an infrastructure you already own—Microsoft Active Directory. Built on an integrated architecture, the Centrify Suite enables organizations to strengthen security, enhance regulatory compliance initiatives, reduce IT expense and complexity, and improve end-user productivity. The Centrify Suite—consisting of DirectControl, DirectAuthorize, DirectAudit, DirectSecure and DirectManage — delivers secure authentication and single sign-on, role-based access control, privileged identity management, user-level auditing, server isolation and encryption of data-in-motion for the industry’s broadest set of heterogeneous systems and applications.

Centrify Express is a comprehensive suite of free Active Directory-based integration solutions for authentication, single sign-on, remote access, file-sharing, reporting and CloudTools for cross-platform systems. Compared to other free offerings, it provides more tools for quickly and easily integrating UNIX, Linux and Mac systems into your Windows environment, with more advanced enterprise features to upgrade to. Centrify Express includes: DirectManage Express, which discovers and manages non-Windows systems and administers local UNIX accounts; DirectControl Express for authentication and single sign-on; Centrify-enabled versions of OpenSSH, PuTTY and Samba; Centrify integration with security information and event management solutions such as Splunk; and Centrify CloudTools for securing systems in the cloud.

Partnership

Using Centrify RightScripts, administrators can deploy any one of the wide selection of operating systems supported by Centrify Suite™ and Centrify Express and secure them automatically.

Centrify solutions manage the existing pre-defined accounts on cloud servers and dynamically control user accounts, access and privileges through centralized management within Active Directory

For IT departments that embrace the Cloud, we provide Centrify CloudTools, an integrated collection of free tools and enhancements to existing products that let organizations dynamically apply Active Directory-based authentication and access control to Linux systems running within cloud hosting providers such as Amazon EC2 and the RightScale Cloud Management Platform. Centrify has created RightScripts for use with RightScale ServerTemplates in order to automate the installation and configuration of authentication and access control on cloud systems to join Active Directory and enforce Active Directory-based user authentication and privilege policies.
