ONE platform. ONE console. ALL the answers you’ll ever need.

Data is critical to the existence of all companies. And, despite the fact that no company has unlimited resources for the task, no effort can be spared to ensure that it remains robust and secure. Key to that robustness and security is the Active Directory (AD), where the identity, location, and access rights of all users and resources are stored and maintained.

However, native AD functionality just isn’t enough for network administrators and IT managers who must cope with the growing demands placed on them throughout the identity and access lifecycle. And, the demands of managing users’ access to resources and enterprise applications is only part of the picture. Data governance, compliance requirements, and operational pressures all add to the complexity and urgency to administrators’ jobs. Their most critical task is ensuring that no unauthorized changes are made to Active Directory or the Windows File System.

They need fast, easy, and accurate answers to four critical questions:

WHO made changes?
WHAT changes were made?
WHERE were changes made?
WHEN were changes made?

And, administrators need to protect critical objects and network data by preventing changes and quickly restoring those resources before damage occurs.

The answer is the Blackbird Management Suite, a SIMPLE, EFFICIENT, and POWERFUL set of fully integrated tools within a single unified architecture that provides full integration and a single easy-to-use UI.
