Summary

There are lots of different tools out there for managing AD objects. In this chapter, we looked at the tools built by Microsoft to manage AD objects. Each and every tool has different characteristics, and we learned how we can use them to add, edit, and remove AD objects effectively. We also learned how we can use different tools and technologies to search for specific AD objects and attribute values. Last but not least, we looked at features that we can use to prevent the accidental deletion of AD objects.

In the next chapter, we will dive deep into AD objects and attributes, evaluating different types of objects and their roles in an AD environment.
