2.7.4 Name Translation

The use case in this category represents name translation between a directory object's security identifier (SID) and human-readable names of the security principals in the access control entries (ACEs) that secure the object. Name translation can be used in such tasks as determining how an object is secured in the directory or modifying the way in which it is secured.
