Data Store
All information required by Digipass Plug-In for SBR is stored in Active Directory or an ODBCcompliant

In for SBR. The data store to be used is selected during installation.
Administration MMC Interface
This interface is used in slightly different ways, depending on the data store used by Digipass

If Active Directory is used as the data store, the Administration MMC Interface will be used for
administration of Policy, Component and Back-End Server records.

Directory User administration. This is only available when Active Directory is used as the data
store for Digipass Plug-In for SBR.
