The Active Directory domain, AD.Brown.edu, is the centralized Windows Directory Service for authentication of user, computer, and group objects. Active Directory is used primarily for the centralized Windows environments.

A variety of electronic and administrative services are made available to Brown Community members who require access to the services.  New Brown faculty, staff and students automatically receive some services (such as email and network access) when activating their account.

By logging into MyAccount, members of the Brown community can manage personal information that is displayed in the Brown directory, add a mobile phone number for emergency contact, change their password for Brown services, and more.
