Centrify Server Suite 2015 - Highlights

Centrify has posted the new bits corresponding to Suite 2015 on their customer support website.   Here are some highlights of the new version

Base Agent (adclient)

• New version is 5.2.2
• Hadoop Features
• Enhancements to adkeytab  (it can now create accounts with the "Password Never Expires" flag).
• Sample scripts provided to automate keytab creation
• AD Kerberos credential renewal
• An XML definition file has been provided for Centrify Audit Trail events, this makes it easier to send to SIEM tools (very requested)
• Centrify-enhanced sudo has been upgraded (now based on 1.8.10p3)
• LDAP Proxy has been upgraded and now supports TLS (this is great), also a startup script has been provided.
• A new command line called adgpresult shows the group policies applied for the computer or user.
