This allows automatic provisioning and deprovisioning of users accross multiple applications in organization and makes overall identity management automatically managed.

   Centralize your authorization using AzMan component of Microsoft for Active Directory. It is natural and easy to provide rights and permissions across the enterprise various applications like Oracle, IBM, SAP using Active Directory groups and users and AD-Snap Ins like of AzMan. Microsoft provides Authorization Management Solution built right into windows server Operating System to help achive that.

   Implement enterprise Single Sign On (SSO) between various applications like SAP, Oracle, IBM and windows active directory. Using Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services, it is possible to program this functionality.

   If your antivirus is being updated but not your windows desktop Operating systems, then you are only half way to be secured. With MS System Center End Point protection deployed on top of MS SCCM, patching for both is performed and handled under same framework.

   Either you develop floor wise VLANs on network switches or rooms wise. With Microsoft Network Access Protection it is possible to design your network to segment based on membership of AD groups or attributes like departements which is more logical break down. 802.1x capable switches allows that. MetalSoft is first organization to enable such functionality in Pakistan, check our corporate profile below. Also with NAP you can block access to your network switches (wired as well as wireless) so that AD-domain joined machines land into a different network VLAN from guests besides auto remediation of missing OS patches.

3. FEDERATE

   Properly deployed Active Directory Federation Services allow the seamless single sign-on experience, despite the location of service rendered from(cloud or onpremises) or nature of technology (from same principal or not). The latest XAML token based technologies can exchange authentication tokens to provide seamless experience to end users who don't need to bother with login again and again.

   Microsoft Direct Access allows that end user VPN is established while the operating sytem is booting up, so that even the group policies are applied to the machine, as provided from remote servers. This is particularly required for perfect control on mobile uesrs with laptops and tablets.
