Gold Finger delivers 6 valuable benefits that substantially mitigate risk and enhance organizational security.

Reliably Delegate Administrative Access in Active Directory

Gold Finger lets organizations trustworthily delegate administrative responsibility in their Active Directory.

If you can delegate an administrative task in Active Directory, you can instantly and accurately assess and verify it with Gold Finger, on-demand, in real-time, at the touch of a button.

The Challenge

Delegation of administration is a vital aspect of IT management, and Microsoft Active Directory offers a very powerful delegation model that lets organizations delegate administrative responsibilities with high precision.

The only capability that Microsoft Active Directory's delegation model lacks is the ability to accurately assess and verify delegated access. Unfortunately, the lack of this vital and essential capability makes it very difficult for organizations to reliably, securely and cost-effectively delegate administrative access in Active Directory.

As a result, many organizations resort to using expensive third-party applications to delegate administrative access. Unfortunately, not only are these third-party applications expensive to use, maintain and manage, but in fact pose a serious security risk as they run in highly-privileged administrative contexts (e.g. Enterprise Admin) as black-boxes that are developed in foreign countries (e.g. Russia) and controlled by foreign nationals.

The Solution

Gold Finger, on the other hand, completely automates the ability to accurately assess and verify delegated access in Active Directory. In fact, out of the box, it can instantly assess and verify over top-100 commonly delegated administrative tasks in Active Directory, including all tasks delegated via the Delegation Wizard.

Gold Finger's accurate resultant-assess assessment and verification capabilities completely compliment Active Directory's powerful delegation capabilities and finally let organizations trustworthily delegate administrative responsibilities in Active Directory with complete control and insight.

In effect, if you can delegate an administrative task in Active Directory, you can instantly and accurately assess and verify it with Gold Finger, on-demand, in real-time, at the touch of a button.

From a security perspective, it is a 100% read-only solution and does not require any powerful administrative credentials to run. It is completely built in the United States by U.S. citizens and architected by former Microsoft Active Directory Security Program Manager, who is also the author of Microsoft's official 400 page whitepaper on Delegation of Administration in Active Directory.

A Winning Combination

Together the powerful combination of Active Directory and Gold Finger finally lets organizations –

• Leverage their investment in Windows Server to reliably manage administrative authority for IT management natively in their Active Directory
• Save significant and valuable IT dollars spent on procuring, deploying and maintaining expensive 3rd party administrative access management solutions
• Secure access provisioned on vital IT assets stored in Active Directory, such as user and computer accounts, security groups, etc.

Together Gold Finger and Active Directory finally let organizations delegate IT management in AD securely.
