Can credentials stored in Active Directory be used to authenticate employees accessing applications protected by Identity Cloud?

  1. No, credentials must be migrated to Identity Cloud

  2. Yes, using ForgeRock Identity Gateway

  3. Yes, but only for web applications

  4. No, AD cannot be integrated with Identity Cloud

The correct answer is: Yes, using ForgeRock Identity Gateway

Using ForgeRock Identity Gateway allows for the integration of Active Directory credentials with applications protected by Identity Cloud. This integration facilitates Single Sign-On (SSO) and enables users to authenticate using their existing Active Directory accounts without needing to migrate those credentials to Identity Cloud. The ForgeRock Identity Gateway acts as a bridge, securely connecting the authentication mechanisms of Active Directory with the applications requiring access management. This means that employees can continue to use their established credentials in Active Directory, streamlining the authentication process and enhancing user experience while maintaining security. The other options suggest limitations or restrictions on authentication that do not reflect the capabilities provided by ForgeRock's solutions. The integration of Active Directory is designed to work with a range of application types, not limited to just web applications. Additionally, it is not necessary to migrate credentials to Identity Cloud, as the gateway effectively handles the authentication without losing the benefit of existing credentials.
