Prevent cleartext credentials over IdentityIQ Active Directory connector

[#1]

It is best practice to reduce the use of cleartext credentials (which is typical behavior with simple-bind authentication), to prevent sensitive data being transmitted or logged, which may facilitate unauthorized access.

To reduce the exposure of cleartext credentials in applications using the Active Directory connector, review your application configuration to verify your authentication settings:

1. From IdentityIQ toolbar, navigate to Applications> Application Definition.
2. Select the application and switch to the Configuration tab.
3. Review any configuration fields with an Authentication and Security property.
4. Switch any entry that uses simple authentication to use Strong (SASL).

You may need to work with the administrators of connected systems and applications to ensure strong authentication is supported.
