Gain control, reduce risk: Identify vulnerabilities in Active Directory
Full Visibility into the AD Environment
The entire domain structure is mapped, including overlooked or unauthorized configurations that may introduce security risks.
Blind spots are eliminated, enabling full control over the identity infrastructure.

Risk Identification and Prioritization
A detailed overview of vulnerabilities within Active Directory is provided, covering misconfigurations and excessive privilege assignments. Risks are aligned with MITRE ATT&CK™ and ANSSI frameworks and scored to support prioritization.

Security Gap Remediation
The AD attack surface is reduced through targeted remediation actions. Structured recommendations guide the resolution of high-risk vulnerabilities, reinforcing identity protection.

Continuous Monitoring and Improvement
Netwrix PingCastle is executed weekly across domains to detect new risks and trust relationships. Progress and improvements in the security score are tracked to ensure sustained AD protection.
