Adapter Features and Purpose

The Windows Password Synch Plug-in is designed to capture password changes on Windows Active Directory accounts.  The new password is forwarded to IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager which then synchronizes the passwords on all accounts owned by the user to the new password.

 

Password changes may be performed by any domain controller in the forest.  The Windows Password Synch Plug-in must be deployed on all domain controllers to ensure that all password changes are captured.
