University Delivers Credential Synchronization to Heterogeneous Systems, Drives Innovation

Overview American University of Beirut (AUB) is a prestigious Middle Eastern university with a worldwide reputation for academic excellence. The university and its affiliated teaching hospital use a variety of application and operating systems, and the IT staff needed a way to give users easy access to all systems, exchange data between systems, and cost-effectively manage them. AUB decided to standardize on the Windows Server 2003 operating system and Active Directory service as its interoperability "backbone," providing users with a unified logon to Windows, UNIX, NIS+, and Linux-based systems and improving data security. The interoperability backbone has simplified system administration, giving the IT staff more time to develop new services for end users and enabling an abundance of innovation at AUB.
