This blog's focus will be on the Active Directory suite of technologies. These technologies provide the underpinning for the majority of Microsoft's suite of business-ready products. As such, this blog will touch on all aspects of Active Directory including Security, Group Policy, Kerberos, Authentication, Authorization, Operations, Migrations, and Troubleshooting.

Feel free to join me as I learn about this core set of technologies.
