CNS440 – Lab Assignment Week 4

Complete Lab 3: Enabling Windows Active Directory and User Access Controls Active Directory is a Windows service for domain-based, identity-related centralized management. As part of the identity management, Active Directory is responsible for user access control in the Windows Environment. In this Lab, you will experiment with creating users, assigning these users to groups and then applying groups to resources in the domain. As part of this, you will act as a system administrator that delegates authentication credentials and authorizes users to access to certain resources. This is a real-world exercise for enabling access control and implementing identity-related policies. Section 1 is a hands-on demonstration – a lot of the steps are repeated in the Section 2 where you have to actually experiment as part of your applied learning. You can go over Section 1 to get a grip; keep the focus on Section 2. Upon Completion of Lab 3, you are required to provide the following deliverables in the Dropbox folder in D2L for this lab:

1. One .docx or .pdf document that contains: 1.1. A summary what you find most interesting and/or most challenging in the lab 1.2. All the screenshots as indicated in the Lab Manual for the lab in the online platform

2. All the remaining files, if there any, as indicated in the Lab Manual for the lab in the online platform.
