One Identity Active Roles

Cork, Ireland

What it is

One Identity Active Roles is a paid tool for administering and governing Microsoft Active Directory, Entra ID, and Microsoft 365. A unified console brings those environments into one interface, while workflow automation helps apply consistent policies. Lifecycle management uses automation and scripting to support least-privilege accounts. Role-based access control enables fine-grained delegation across Active Directory domains and Entra ID and Microsoft 365 tenants. Change history and activity tracking support audits and remediation. Listed integrations include One Identity Manager, Safeguard Authentication Services, Defender, Change Auditor, GPO Admin, Password Manager, and Starling Connect. Supported platforms include web, iOS, Android, and self-hosted virtual or physical appliances; the installation guide describes requirements for an on-premises environment. A license must be purchased for legal use. Pricing is available on request and the license fee is based on the number of managed users. The product page offers a free trial and a virtual trial. Listed capabilities include delegated administration, AD auditing, lifecycle automation, and reporting; password self-service is not included.
