OPSEC Integration
Using the LDAP interface to NDS, FireWall-1 and VPN-1 administrators now can manage across an enterprise within a single, hierarchical NDS directory. Security information such as user name and password, which is stored in NDS, can now be automatically accessed by FireWall-1 and VPN-1 modules to enforce enterprise security policies. With this certification, security administrators no longer have to maintain separate user databases for each security application, thus reducing management overhead and significantly improving overall network security within an NDS environment.
