AD DS (Active Directory Domain Services)

Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) is a technology used by organizations to manage and organize their network of computers, users, and resources. It provides a centralized database where information about users, devices, and permissions is stored securely. With AD DS, administrators can easily control who has access to what, enforce security policies, and streamline tasks like signing in or sharing files. Think of it as a digital directory or address book for all the computers and users in a company, helping keep everything organized and secure efficiently.
