dzdo is Centrify's replacement for sudo, providing privileged command execution with Active Directory integration. It allows users to run commands as root or other users based on centralized policy.
dzdo integrates with Centrify's DirectControl for unified identity management across Unix/Linux and Windows systems. Policies are managed in Active Directory rather than local sudoers files.
The tool provides similar functionality to sudo but with enterprise authentication and authorization features.
