Directory as a Service (DaaS) provides a centralized platform for managing user, device, and resource information, streamlining data management and access control. It is a crucial database designed to store and manage users & resources, often called directories, user stores, Identity Stores, or LDAP directories. DaaS offers efficient access control with streamlined permissions management and provides scalability and flexibility to adapt to changing organizational needs. Directory services are essential tools for network and system admins to efficiently manage user onboarding, access privilege management, regulate apps, and monitor infrastructure access. They play a vital role in Identity Security strategies and are frequently integrated with Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions, supporting functionalities like Single Sign-On (SSO), Multifactor Authentication (MFA), Identity Lifecycle Management, Adaptive Authentication, Role-Based Access (RBAC), and Privilege Access Management (PAM).

Features:

• Unified Identity Integration: Easily provision users across platforms with Directory Service, connecting devices, apps, servers, and cloud infrastructure. miniOrange DaaS offers a unified view of data. SCIM and JIT Provisioning simplify user management and enhance security with access controls based on identity source data.
• Consolidated User Management: Directory Service unifies user profiles, manages attributes, and syncs changes in real-time. It auto-creates users during authentication. Set access policies based on location, IP, and device with MFA for added security. Group-based password policies and self-service resets reduce IT helpdesk burden.
• Easy migration to Cloud Directory: Migrate from AD and LDAP to a cloud directory, storing unlimited users with custom attributes and app allocations. With miniOrange, access real-time logs for troubleshooting, pre-built reports for usage insights, and export data via CSV or API.
• Secure, Frictionless Access: Single Sign-On (SSO) allows users to access web and on-premise apps with one set of credentials. Without managing on-premise endpoints, users can connect to applications, file servers, and control VPN/Wi-Fi access via a browser. Adding MFA further secures accounts.
