ASSESSING QUALITY OF AN ACTIVE DIRECTORY

Abstract:

A system and method for validating user profile data from a directory application is described. The system accesses user collaboration data of a plurality of users of an application. The system also accesses a directory application that manages user profile data for each user of the plurality of users. A set of heuristics is applied on the user profile data. The system validates results of the applied set of heuristics on the user profile data with the user collaboration data. The quality of the user profile data is assessed based on the validation.
