AD Bridge Management Console not installing the ADUC and GPOE plugins.

I installed AD Bridge Management Console on my server running Windows Server 2022. However, while running the configuration wizard, I found that the ADUC and GPOE plugins were not installed despite me leaving the default options to install those plugins. Asking to see if anyone may know why this is the case?

Customer Success Quarterly - 2024-Q4 - Active Directory Bridge

Hello! Last month our Chief Customer Officer, Sean Cashin, provided some information on our upcoming dedicated user community. I’m excited to announce that BeyondTrust launched our new BeeKeepers community on Monday, September 16th! Why BeeKeepers?The name BeeKeepers was born from the idea to protect and secure privileged identities, along with the paths those identities follow in order to gain privilege, aka Paths to Privilege. What does the BeeKeepers name mean to us?Imagine a company’s data and secrets as the honey in a beehive. BeeKeepers take care of the hive, protecting the honey and honeybees, from predators the live to steal the honey, damaging and destroying the hive. Now imagine you, BeyondTrust customers, IT Admins, SOC professionals, and CISOs are the BeeKeepers! And honeybees are identities – human and non-human – continuously travelling along their flight paths, the Paths to Privilege, collecting pollen and making more honey. BeeKeepers protect the honeybees’ path and con

BeyondTrust Quarterly Update - 2024-Q3 - Active Directory Bridge

Hello All, Leaning into the cliché, it’s hard to believe the year is half over already. As I'm sure is true for many of you, this has been a year of hard work and big changes at BeyondTrust. At the beginning of the year, I stepped into the role of Chief Customer Officer and welcomed both Mike Machado and Brett Thiess to the team as CISO and CMO, respectively. We also welcomed Ron Nissim and his team into the BeyondTrust family with the acquisition of Entitle, expanding BeyondTrust’s stance as an Identity Security leader!  As the CCO, my passion and focus are on ensuring that our customers not only adopt but get real value from our products – securing their Identity landscape, minimizing the risk of threat actors, and limiting the blast radius of any incidents. Your thoughts and experiences are a key piece of guidance for us; from your NPS responses and feedback on your interactions with teams like support and services, to your engagement on changes we’ve made to products, we value the
