Deprecation Notice - Active Directory LDAP Plain-Text Support

To help improve the security posture of customers using Active Directory user sync, we will decommission LDAP Plain Text Support early next year.

 

To prepare for Active Directory port deprecation, all customers should look to assign a new port authentication method before Wednesday, 25 January 2023.

See Active Directory Port Settings for more details.

The latest release v5.20220720, will remove Plain Text authentication as an option for new Active Directory configurations.

Customers currently using Plain Text will continue to work, however changing away from this method will prevent customers from reverting back.
