The Challenge: Managing LDAP in the Cloud
As a company focused on helping other organizations strengthen their security, Horangi understands how important it is to lead by example and make sure their own systems are protected.
鈥淪ecurity is at the heart of Horangi,鈥� said Nikolay 鈥淣iko鈥� Akatyev, Horangi鈥檚 VP of Internal Security and IT. 鈥淚t matters the most to us to make sure that our employee and customer data is well-protected and safe from any insider or outside threats.鈥�
Staff at Horangi utilize Google Workspace, AWS, as well as Mac and Windows operating systems in their daily operations. That, coupled with the fact that the company has implemented work-from-home arrangements due to the COVID-19 pandemic, makes managing their environment difficult.
To overcome the challenge, in 2017, Horangi started looking for a tool that they could use to manage LDAP in the cloud. The right solution would allow their Internal Security team to manage access to their VPN and ensure that only authorized staff could access the company鈥檚 network, applications, and data.
The Solution: A 探花大神 Early Adopter
At the time, there weren鈥檛 many solutions on the market that cloud-native companies like Horangi could turn to for the LDAP use case. After much research, Horangi shortlisted their choices to two options and ultimately decided that 探花大神鈥檚 cloud LDAP service was the perfect fit for their needs. The other option, Okta, was too complicated and expensive.
