A trusted domain is a domain that the local system trusts to authenticate users. In other words, if a user or application is authenticated by a trusted domain, this authentication is accepted by all domains that trust the authenticating domain.

Trust Flow is used to indicate how well the trusted sites link to your site. The more the trusted links to your site, the higher your site's Trust Flow. Domain Authority is used to predict the likelihood that your site will rank in the SERPs. The higher the rank, the better the chance of ranking.

Prerequisites for Establishing an AD Trust. In order to create an AD trust between two Active Directory domain, the following requirements must be satisfied: Network Connectivity - domain controllers from each domain must be able to communicate with one another.

In the case of a domain-joined computer, the authenticating target is the domain controller. The credentials used in authentication are digital documents that associate the user's identity to some form of proof of authenticity, such as a certificate, a password, or a PIN.

In a one-way trust relationship, the trusting domain makes its resources available to users in the trusted domain. A two-way trust relationship consists of two one-way trusts in opposite directions. By default in Active Directory, all domains in a forest trust each other with two-way transitive trust relationships.

In a one-way trust, direction is from the trusting domain to the trusted domain. Trust authentication follows the flow of existing trust relationships that are part of the trusted domain. If a transitive trust is created with an external forest, the authentication can traverse the path of the forest's existing trusts.

Trusted Domain: Users and groups in the joined domain as well as trusted domains can be managed. You can filter the list of users and groups by domains. Single Domain with OU: Only users and groups in the joined domain will be displayed in this mode.

Authenticated users, if given proper permissions, can access resources in the other domain. Active Directory Domain Services supports four types of trusts: External (Domain), Forest, Realm, and Shortcut. Out of those four types of trusts, AWS Managed Microsoft AD supports the External (Domain) and Forest trust types.

Two-Way Trust: Two domains trust each other. Users in either domain can access resources in the other. One-Way Trust: One domain trusts another, but not vice versa. Users in the trusted domain can access resources in the trusting domain, but not the other way around.
