Furthermore, MS Active Directory is known for issues when dealing with Linux based systems. Ethicontrol is run on Linux based servers. ## Key features | ![Ectrl\_final-1](https://ethicontrol.com/hubfs/Ectrl_final-1.svg) | Whistleblowing portal and case management | | --- | --- | | ![tariff\_new-3](https://ethicontrol.com/hubfs/tariff_new-3.svg) | Advanced customisation | | ![12\_version\_3](https://ethicontrol.com/hubfs/12_version_3.svg) | Single sign-on | | ![Settings icon for Compliance (1)](https://ethicontrol.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Website/Ethicontrol%20case%20study%205/icon/Settings%20icon%20for%20Compliance%20(1).webp?width=50&height=50&name=Settings%20icon%20for%20Compliance%20(1).webp) | Integrations | | ## Solution | | --- | | We leveraged a third-party [Ruby on Rails API for Active Directory](https://auth0.com/authenticate/rails/active-directory/) which allowed to securely connect both applications. We also set additional security checks making sure that the client’s admins will not be able to compromise Ethicontrol login by granting excessive rights to users. | | ## Benefit | | --- | | The client received an integration that was not agreed upon or discussed during the first two years of the contract. Ethicontrol grows together with the client’s needs. | | ## Result | | Seamless UX for client users in terms of login. Better security for users aligned with corporate policies and applications. | Company [Blog](https://ethicontrol.com/en/blog?hsLang=en) [About us](https://ethicontrol.com/en/about-us?hsLang=en) [Contacts](https://ethicontrol.com/en/contacts?hsLang=en) [We hire!](https://ethicontrol.com/en/join-us?hsLang=en) [Security](https://ethicontrol.com/en/trust-center?hsLang=en) [Terms of business](https://ethicontrol.com/en/terms-of-business?hsLang=en) [Whistleblowing FAQ](https://ethicontrol.com/en/faq?hsLang=en) Features [Internal reporting channels](https://ethicontrol.com/en/features/internal-reporting-channels?hsLang=en) [Toll-free lines](https://ethicontrol.com/en/features/specialised-contact-center?hsLang=en) [Incident management](https://ethicontrol.com/en/features/incident-management?hsLang=en) [Case management](https://ethicontrol.com/en/features/case-management?hsLang=en) [Analytics and reporting](https://ethicontrol.com/en/features/analytics-and-reporting?hsLang=en) [Pricing](https://ethicontrol.com/en/pricing?hsLang=en) Use cases [Ethics & Compliance](https://ethicontrol.com/en/main?hsLang=en) [EU Whistleblowing Directive](https://ethicontrol.com/en/eu-whistleblowing-directive-platform?hsLang=en) [Corporate security](https://ethicontrol.com/en/painless-security-platform?hsLang=en) [On premise](https://ethicontrol.com/en/blog/korobkove-rishennia-ethibox?hsLang=en) [Clients' cases](https://ethicontrol.com/en/case-studies?hsLang=en) [Compliance matrix](https://ethicontrol.com/en/compliance-matrix?hsLang=en) Resources [Ethics management methodology](https://ethicontrol.com/en/painless-ethics-management-methodology?hsLang=en) [Whistleblowing ROI calculator](https://ethicontrol.com/en/fraud-losses-calculator?hsLang=en) [Evaluate maturity of your WB solution](https://form.jotform.com/222344419023043) [Whistleblowing is good for business](https://ethicontrol.com/en/good-for-business?hsLang=en) [Presentations](https://www.slideshare.net/olagodiyenko/presentations) [Researches](https://ethicontrol.com/en/blog/tag/research?hsLang=en) [![ECTRL White Logo](https://ethicontrol.com/hubfs/ECTRL%20White%20Logo.svg "ECTRL White Logo")](https://ethicontrol.com/en/main?hsLang=en) Copyright © 2026 Ethicontrol, OU and Ethicontrol LLC.
