# NetApp Active Directory

NetApp Active Directory in Google Cloud is a managed service that integrates Cloud Volumes Service for NetApp with Microsoft Active Directory. It allows seamless authentication and access control for file shares using existing AD credentials. This enables centralized identity management, simplifies user access, and supports enterprise security policies for workloads that rely on Windows-based authentication.
