On-premise Active Directory (AD) and Azure AD are frequently used by organizations to authenticate and sanction users by facilitating and assigning actions such as policies and user permissions, as well as to support the installation of software and ongoing maintenance, such as updates.
In an effort to increase the productivity and efficiency of our customers through integration with current tools, DNSFilter launched its first iteration of Active Directory integration in June 2020. To support the integration, DNSFilter developed the Sync Tool, available to customers who have Pro+ subscriptions. This permits customers who employ either on-premise Active Directory or Azure AD to synchronize DNSFilter user account creation and provisioning with their existing deployments. More specifically, administrators can group users into collections and apply specific policies, schedules, and block pages to those collections, as well as on a per-user basis.
At DNSFilter, we are dedicated to iterating and enhancing existing features through leveraging new technologies as well as feedback from customers actively using the features. As a result, DNSFilter is excited to announce a new release of the Sync Tool which includes both enhancements and improvements to strengthen the user experience.
