Accelerating identity governance with Netwrix Identity Manager and Directory Manager together
Identity governance programs are essential for securing modern IT environments, but they often take time to deliver measurable results. Organizations typically need to integrate multiple systems, analyze existing access rights, define roles and policies, and establish governance processes before realizing the full value of an identity governance platform.
At the same time, many organizations rely heavily on Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID to manage access to applications, collaboration platforms, and cloud services. Groups in these directories frequently determine who can access business systems, which makes directory governance a key part of identity security.
This eBook explains how organizations can accelerate identity governance initiatives by combining and Netwrix Identity Manager. Directory Manager focuses on directory-centric automation, while Identity Manager extends governance across applications and systems beyond the directory.
By implementing directory automation first and expanding governance over time, organizations can achieve faster time-to-value while building toward broader identity governance across hybrid environments.
