How does this help my team?

As a cyber analyst a lot of your day will be spent looking through user logs to see if there was anything malicious with a users activity. Most of the user logs will contain either an email or an LDAP username which can be mapped back to the actual user. It can be cumbersome constantly combing through the logs trying to figure out who a user is. With the Polarity – LDAP integration you will automatically know who the user is and even get information on when they were created, last time password was changed and more. The Polarity – LDAP integration allows you to instantly get the information you need about a user allowing you have the knowledge you need to make better decisions faster.
