SafeNet Synchronization Agent Release Notes
SafeNet Synchronization Agent simplifies user creation in SafeNet Trusted Access (STA) and SafeNet Authentication Service Private Cloud Edition (SAS PCE). Without the agent, the administrator must manually input user information via the web-based management interface. With SafeNet Synchronization Agent, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), or Structured Query Language (SQL) user groups are monitored for membership changes and user information updates are automatically made in STA and SAS PCE.
