IS Decisions today announced UserLock 13.0, a major update to its identity and access management (IAM) solution — purpose-built for on-premises and hybrid Active Directory environments. The redesigned interface and security enhancements make protecting Active Directory identities simpler, faster, and more secure by design.
“Most of the world still runs on Active Directory. UserLock 13.0 is about making that reality easier to secure — helping IT teams protect the identities they already rely on, without disrupting the systems that keep business running.”
— François Amigorena, CEO and Founder of IS Decisions
