Active Directory User Authentication #
You can configure Elastic Stack security features to communicate with Active Directory to authenticate users. The security features use LDAP to communicate with Active Directory, so active_directory realms are similar to ldap realms. Like LDAP directories, Active Directory stores users and groups hierarchically. The directory’s hierarchy is built from containers such as the organizational unit (ou), organization (o), and domain controller (dc).

Full details on using Active Directory for authentication can be found in the Elastic Stack documentation here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.17/active-directory-realm.html
