Customizing DirX Identity

DirX Identity is designed to be highly configurable in its function and in the display of its objects in DirX Identity Manager. To achieve this goal, DirX Identity allows you to customize:

  • Objects in the provisioning and connectivity configuration. You can use object descriptions and component descriptions to customize existing objects or to define your own objects.

  • Policies. You can define access control for objects that are not yet protected and for your own custom objects.

  • Workflow definitions. You can use object references to define how object attributes fill dynamically for DirX Identity workflow definitions.

  • Proposal lists, permission parameters, and role parameters. You can use role parameter and proposal parameter objects to customize existing list definitions or to create your own.

  • The Provisioning object tree view. You can adapt the tree view to your company’s requirements.

  • Wizards. The Provisioning and Connectivity wizards are used to hide parts of the complexity of DirX Identity

  • Provisioning target systems. You can define target systems and how accounts are created including unique naming and inheritance rules

  • Auditing tools, such as query folders and status reports. You can use query folders for data maintenance and reports to check compliance.

  • DirX Identity program logic. You can use JavaScript and Java programming to extend the system where simple configuration is not sufficient.

  • Password manager. You can customize the password checker and the password generator of the DirX Identity password management component. If you are using the DirX Directory Server as the Identity Store, you can also enable account locking.

  • Certification campaigns. You can customize certification campaigns with user hooks.
