  3. Week 1 Introduction and Install Active Directory • Introducing Active Directory, Identity, and Access • Active Directory Components and Concepts • Extend IDA with Active Directory Services

  4. Information Protection in a Nutshell • It’s all about connecting users to the information they require … SECURELY! • IDA: Identity and Access • AAA: Authentication, Authorization, Accounting • CIA: Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability ( & Authenticity)

  5. Identity and Access (IDA) • Identity: user account • Saved in an identity store (directory database) • Security principal • Represented uniquely by the security identifier (SID) • Resource: Shared Folder • Secured with a security descriptor • Discretionary access control list (DACL or “ACL”) • Access control entries (ACEs or “permissions”)

  6. Authentication and Authorization • A user presents credentials that are authenticated using the information stored withthe user’sidentity • The system creates a security token that represents the user with the user’s SID and all related group SIDs A resources is secured with an access control list (ACL): permissions that pair a SID with a level of access • The user’s security token is compared with the ACL of the resource to authorize a requested level of access

  7. Two types of authentication Authentication Authentication is the process that verifies a user’s identity Credentials: at least two components required • Username • Secret, for example, password • Local (interactive) Logon – authentication for logon to the local computer • Remote (network) logon – authentication for access to resources on another computer

  8. Access Tokens User’s Access Token User SID Member Group SIDs Privileges (“user rights”) Other access information

  9. Security Descriptors, ACLs and ACEs Security Descriptor System ACL (SACL) Discretionary ACL (DACL or “ACL”) ACETrustee (SID)Access Mask ACETrustee (SID)Access Mask

  10. Authorization Authorization is the process that determines whether to grant or deny a user a requested level of access to a resource Three components required for authorization • Resource • Access Request • Security Token User’s Access Token Security Descriptor System finds first ACE in the ACL that allows or denies the requested access level for any SID in the user’s token User SID System ACL (SACL) Group SID Discretionary ACL (DACL or “ACL”) ACETrustee (SID)Access Mask List of user rights ACETrustee (SID)Access Mask Other access information

  11. Stand-alone (Workgroup) Authentication • The identity store is the security accounts manager (SAM) database on the Windows system • No shared identity store • Multiple user accounts • Management of passwords is challenging

  12. Active Directory Domains: Trusted Identity Store • Centralized identity store trusted by all domain members • Centralized authentication service • Hosted by a server performing the role of an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain controller

  13. Active Directory, Identity, and Access • An IDA infrastructure should • Store information about users, groups, computers and other identities • Authenticate an identity • Kerberos authentication used in Active Directory provides single sign-on. Users are authenticated only once. • Control access • Provide an audit trail • Active Directory services • Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) • Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) • Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) • Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) • Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)

  14. Active Directory As a Database Schema Demo • Active Directory is a database • Each “record” is an object • Users, groups, computers, … • Each “field” is an attribute • Logon name, SID, password, description, membership, … • Identities (security principals or “accounts”) • Services: Kerberos, DNS, replication, etc. • Accessing the database • Windows tools, user interfaces, and components • APIs (.NET, VBScript, Windows PowerShell) • Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) AD DS is, in the end, a databaseand the services that support or use that database

  15. Organizational Units • Containers • Users • Computers • Organizational Units • Containers that also support the management and configuration of objects using Group Policy • Create OUs to • Delegate administrative permissions • Apply Group Policy

  16. Policy-Based Management • Active Directory provides a single point of management for security and configuration through policies • Group Policy • Domain password and lockout policy • Audit policy • Configuration • Applied to users or computers by scoping a GPO containing configuration settings • Fine-grained password and lockout policies

  17. The Active Directory Data Store • %systemroot%\NTDS\ntds.dit • Logical partitions • Domain naming context • Schema • Configuration • Global catalog (aka Partial Attribute Set) • DNS (application partitions) • SYSVOL • %systemroot%\SYSVOL • Logon scripts • Policies Schema Configuration *Domain* DNS PAS NTDS.DIT

  18. Domain Controllers • Servers that perform the AD DS role • Host the Active Directory database (NTDS.DIT) and SYSVOL • Replicated between domain controllers • Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) service: authentication • Other Active Directory services • Best practices • Available: at least two in a domain • Secure: Server Core, Read-only domain controllers (RODCs)

  19. Domain • Made up of one or more DCs • All DCs replicate the Domain naming context (Domain NC) • The domain is the context within which Users, Groups, Computers, and so on are created • “Replication boundary” • Trusted identity source: Any DC can authenticate any logon in the domain • The domain is the maximum scope (boundary) for certain administrative policies • Password • Lockout

  20. Replication • Multimaster replication • Objects and attributes in the database • Contents of SYSVOL are replicated • Several components work to create an efficient and robust replication topology and to replicate granular changes to AD • The Configuration partition of the database stores information about sites, network topology, and replication DC1 DC3 DC2

  21. Sites • An Active Directory object that represents a well-connected portion of your network • Associated with subnet objects representing IP subnets • Intrasite vs. intersite replication • Replication within a site occurs very quickly (15-45 seconds) • Replication between sites can be managed • Service localization • Log on to a DC in your site Site B Site A

  22. Tree • One or more domains in a single instance of AD DS that share contiguous DNS namespace treyresearch.net proseware.com antarctica.treyresearch.net

  23. Forest • A collection of one or more Active Directory domain trees • First domain is the forest root domain • Single configuration and schemareplicated to all DCs in the forest • A security and replication boundary

  24. The Global Catalog Partial Attribute Set or Global Catalog Contains every object in every domain in the forest Contains only selected attributes A type of index Can be searched from any domain Very important for many applications Domain A PAS Domain B PAS

  25. Functional Level • Domain functional levels • Forest functional levels • New functionality requires that domain controllers are running a particular version of Windows • Windows 2000 • Windows Server 2003 • Windows Server 2008 • Cannot raise functional levelwhile DCs are running previousversions of Windows • Cannot add DCs runningprevious versions of Windowsafter raising functional level

  26. DNS and Application Partitions • Active Directory and DNS are tightly integrated • One-to-one relationship between the DNS domain name and the logical domain unit of Active Directory • Complete reliance on DNS to locate computers and services in the domain • A domain controller acting as a DNS server can store the zone data in Active Directory itself—in an application partition Schema Configuration Domain DNS PAS

  27. Trust Relationships • Extends concept of trusted identity store to another domain • Trusting domain (with the resource) trusts the identity store and authentication services of the trusted domain • A trusted user can authenticate to, and be given access to resources in, the trusting domain • Within a forest, each domain trusts all other domains • Trust relationships can be established with external domains Trusted domain Trusting domain

  28. Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) • Standalone version of Active Directory • Used to support applications that require a directory store • Allow customization without impact to production Active Directory • Characteristics • A subset of AD DS functionality, sharing the same code • Schema, Configuration, and Application partitions • Replication • Not dependent upon AD DS • Can use AD DS to authenticate Windows security principals • Can run multiple instances on a single server

  29. Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) • Extends the concept of trust • A certificate from a trusted certificate authority (CA) proves identity • Trust can be extended beyond the boundaries of your enterprise, as long as clients trust the CA of the certificates you present • Creates a public key infrastructure (PKI) • Confidentiality, Integrity, Authenticity, Non-Repudiation • Many uses • Internal-only or external • Secure Web sites (SSL) • VPN • Wireless authentication and encryption • Smart card authentication • Integration with AD DS powerful, but not required

  30. Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) • Ensures the integrity of information • Traditional model: ACL defines access. No restriction on use. • AD RMS: Ensures access is limited and defines use. • Examples • Limit access to specified individuals • View e-mail but do not forward or print • View and print document but cannot change or e-mail • Requires • AD RMS • IIS, Database (SQL Server or Windows Internal Database) • AD DS • RMS enabled applications including Microsoft Office applications, Internet Explorer

  31. Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) • Extends the authority of AD DS to authenticate users • Traditional “trust” • Two Windows domains • Numerous TCP ports open in firewalls • “Everyone” from trusted domain is trusted • AD FS uses Web services technologies to implement trust • One AD DS/LDS directory; other side can be Active Directory or other platforms • Port 443: transactions are secure and encrypted • Rules specifying which users from trusted domain are trusted • Uses • Business-to-business: partnership • Single sign-on

  32. Install Windows Server 2008 • Boot with installation media (DVD) • Follow prompts and select the operating system to install

  33. Server Manager and Role-Based Configuration of Windows Server 2008 • Windows Server 2008 has minimal footprint • Functionality is added as roles or features • Server Manager: role and feature configuration along with the common administrative snap-ins for the server

  34. Install and Configure a Domain Controller Install the Active Directory Domain Services role using the Server Manager 1 Run the Active Directory Domain Services Installation Wizard 2 Choose the deployment configuration 3 Select the additional domain controller features 4 Select the location for the database, log files, and SYSVOL folder 5 Configure the Directory Services Restore Mode Administrator Password 6

  35. Prepare to Create a New Forest with Windows Server 2008 • Domain’s DNS name (e.g. contoso.com) • Domain’s NetBIOS name (e.g. contoso) • Whether the new forest will need to support DCs running previous versions of Windows (affects choice of functional level) • Details about how DNS will be implemented to support AD DS • Default: Creating domain controller adds DNS Server role as well • IP configuration for the DC • IPv4 and, optionally, IPv6 • Username and password of an account in the server’sAdministrators group. Account must have a password. • Location for data store (ntds.dit) and SYSVOL • Default: %systemroot% (c:\windows)
