Packt is pleased to announce the release of its new book on disaster recovery for an Active Directory. Written by Florian Rommel, Active Directory Disaster Recovery acts as a practical step-by-step guide which will help users to plan and implement a disaster recovery plan for an Active Directory.
Active Directory (AD) is a technology created by Microsoft that provides a variety of network services, including LDAP-like directory services, Kerberos based authentication, and DNS based naming and other network information. However, if Active Directory is a part of the backbone of the network and infrastructure, the guide to bring it back online in case of an incident needs to be as clear and concise as possible.
This book describes the most common scenarios while creating a directory and how to properly recover the infrastructure from them. The first half focuses on planning and shows users how to configure their AD to be resilient; the second half is response focused and meant as a reference in which different disaster scenarios are discussed. It contains commands and steps for each process, and includes information on how to plan for and leverage technologies in case of a disaster.
Network security professionals will find this book useful for both, creating an Active Directory Disaster Recovery plan and recovering quickly once the disaster has struck.
The book is out now and is available from Packt. For more information, please visit: http://www.packtpub.com/
