Submitted by Aldo Zanoni on November 16, 2006 - 10:00pm.

Running GroupWise on Windows? Running Exchange and NetWare? Do you have multiple eDirectory, Active Directory, GroupWise and Exchange systems you need to manage? How do you resolve the challenge of managing mixed networks?

Many environments with mixed networks have deployed Novell Identity Manager 3 to synchronise data across their multiple systems. The following White Paper explains how eControl is an ideal complement to IDM 3 and allows administrators to deploy "ZERO-Rights" delegated account management in mixed systems.

While many administrators have solved their identity synchronization needs by deploying Novell Identify Manager 3, they still struggle with the challenges and complexity related to delegating user account management across those multiple systems.

eControl provides the ideal complement to Novell Identity Manager 3's automated user provisioning and account synchronization across different systems. eControl enhances IDM 3 by providing a web-based, ZERO-Rights interface that allows non-technical people to carry out specific, secure, audited, delegated user account administration tasks for eDirectory, GroupWise, Active Directory and Exchange. No more supervisor trustee assignments required, no system permissions required, no more training on ConsoleOne, NWAdmin, iManager, Microsoft Management Console for junior administrators.

By providing role-based delegated account management, eControl allows network administrators and managers to focus on the upper level management tasks that bring strategic value to the IT process.

eControl's fully archivable audit trail allows administrators and auditors to keep track of data access and account change logs. Disabling and deleting orphaned and dormant accounts can be securely delegated to junior support staff. Administrators can enforce strong password policies and reduce the risk of regulatory exposure and security liability. As a user's role changes within the organisation, eControl helps you change his or her group memberships and task authorities. This improves responsiveness, increase productivity, mitigate security risks and produce more accurate user account data.

eControl alleviates the need to assign any system access rights, trustee assignments or file system rights and permissions. This allows you and your IT staff to focus on business requirements instead of security needs. And, for organisations embarking on a longer-term identity management strategy, eControl delivers a quick win and significant and immediate ROI.
