Enterprise Active Directory Services Service Description The Enterprise Active Directory Service (EADS) is a core foundation service which enables state agencies to reduce their infrastructure and operating costs by utilizing a common, standardized, and secure directory. Enterprise Active Directory Services, currently based on MS Active Directory, provides a centralized authoritative directory of information. This standardized directory automates management of network-based resources (such as user data, security, computers, printers, applications, and file shares). Agencies can also take advantage of the Enterprise Shared LDAP environment. This environment allows applications anywhere in the state to securely authenticate any user who has an NCID account. This provides a simple methodology for applications to securely authenticate users without additional infrastructure costs or complexity.
