Dubai, UAE. <\/strong>\u2013 March 3, 2021<\/strong> \u2013 Attivo Networks\u00ae, the industry experts in lateral movement attack detection and privilege escalation prevention, today announced the expansion of its Active Directory protection suite of products with a new and innovative way to discover and remediate exposures in Active Directory (AD) that could lead to breaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Active Directory is a directory service used by over 90% of all enterprises for employee authentication, identity management and access control. It is notoriously complex to secure, with attackers using privileged access, which AD controls, in over 80% of all attacks. The new ADAssessor solution reduces this risk by finding, fixing and remediating exposures within AD and limits the attacker\u2019s ability to identify sensitive targets, compromise misconfigurations, move laterally and gain persistence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cProtecting Active Directory should be on the radar of every executive team. The consequences can be dire when an attacker uses Active Directory to compromise all critical resources and identities gaining access to key applications, data and tampers with security policies,\u201d said Srikant Vissamsetti, senior vice president of engineering at Attivo Networks. \u201cWe see Active Directory exploitation used in the majority of ransomware, insider and advanced attacks. We are pleased to now offer our customers early and efficient solutions for preventing the misuse of Active Directory.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSince Active Directory is the jumping off point for so many attacks, security executives must prioritize the protection of Active Directory and Kerberos authentication vulnerabilities,\u201d said Steve Hunt, senior analyst at Aite Group. \u201cThese systems need to be continuously monitored and protected more diligently, validating the integrity of each part, including critical control infrastructure and entitlement access.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
