VIS provides robust group management without requiring any forest trusts

Static Group Membership- Users from multiple LDAP directories or forest can be added as static members of a group; without trusts.

Virtual Dynamic Group Membership- Users from multiple LDAP directories or forest are dynamically "added" to the group based on meeting a criteria that is evaluated at run-time.

Cross-Forest Group Membership Without Trusts

Join & Merge Options of the VIS include:Union Mode- Provides a combination or

collection of the objects from all connected source directories.

Object Precedence Mode (OP)- Provides an authoritative order at a directory level.

Attribute Precedence (AP) Mode– Provides a merged view of objects (Givenname, SN from Internal directory and sAMAccountName and HealthID from External directory).

Powerful Join and Merge Options –Without Custom Code

Virtual Identity Server has complete and comprehensive audit logging of all activity.

The VIS can help you answer questions such as:

1. Who has logged in and when?2. What changes were made to data and

when?3. Who was added to the Administrators

group today?4. What changes did "Bob" make?

Comprehensive Audit and Compliance

Any custom/third party schema can be applied within VIS reducing the complexity of custom schema

Custom schema is applied automatically on-the-fly and requires no custom coding, or replication of objects.

A common custom schema can now be applied easily across multiple Active Directory forests without any changes to the AD environment.

Virtual Active Directory Schema

VIS can be placed behind a load balancer (hardware or software) to provide robust failover/redundancy for applications connecting to VIS.

VIS scales either horizontally or vertically to meet the demanding needs of enterprise deployments.

VIS offers robust caching options, objects can have a cache size limit and a time limit or both.

Robust Scaling and Caching

The Virtual Identity Server can be extended using any standard .NET programming language such as VB.NET or C#

Custom adapters can easily written leveraging the base VIS .NET objects that are visible within Visual Studio.
