Cerberus FTP Server
Active Directory FTP Security Groups
Microsoft’s Active Directory (AD) directory service provides administators with an efficient way to assign security roles and resource access priveliges through security groups. Cerberus FTP Server’s AD integration allows administrators to configure fine-grained directory access for multiple security groups within AD that will be automatically replicated throughout the Cerberus file server. This feature saves administrators significant time and supports larger organizations working to maintain data access compliance.
