DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise v5.2

摘要

DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise v5.2 is a centrally managed suite of solutions - access management, data protection and secure communications - that protect data and control access to PCs and applications. It provides a suite of security applications integrated into a multicredential authentication infrastructure that can be managed from the cloud or Active Directory (AD). It allows companies to control and enforce multiple security applications through a single control point, and provides strong authentication, single sign-on, secure virtual private network (VPN) access, full-disk encryption, access recovery and secure email and documents. For our review, we focused on the multifactor authentication components. The solution was delivered to us as a software offering. We loaded it on our Windows test server. The process required us to load several applications before installing the server component. Once we ran the server app, it extended the AD schema and created a "Defender" container and tab in our "Users and Computers Manager." This approach was interesting as there was no special web-based GUI needed to manage the offering, it was all done through standard AD tools with the extensions. We licensed the product, imported a token and created policies. Because it was similar to working with standard AD menus, we got through all the implementation and setup, though the documentation was a bit lacking. The client side does have an attractive administrative console that can be used for local configuration and administration. If one wishes, that feature can be removed via a group policy object (GPO). There are additional password manager and privacy applications that can be loaded on the client as well. All the server side management and configuration was done through the Group Policy Management Editor.
