Integration with an external directory service

Kaspersky Security 8 for Linux Mail Server can connect to servers of external directory services used by your organization via the LDAP protocol.

A directory service is a software system that can store information about network resources (such as users) in one place and provides centralized management capabilities.

LDAP stands for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol for accessing directory services.

A connection to an external directory service via the LDAP protocol enables the Kaspersky Security 8 for Linux Mail Server administrator to perform the following tasks:

• Adding senders or recipients from an external directory service to message processing rules
• Create, edit, and view custom black and white lists of addresses of users on the LAN of the organization.
• View Backup copies of messages of users on the LAN of the organization.
