Microsoft Active Directory Security
The main factor that makes Active Directory security, or AD security, uniquely important in a business’s overall security posture is that the organization’s Active Directory controls all system access. Effective Active Directory management helps protect your business’s credentials, applications and confidential data from unauthorized access. It’s important to have strong security to prevent malicious users from breaching your network and causing damage.
Risks of Neglecting AD Security
If you neglect Active Directory security, you’re at risk for the following kinds of cyberattacks and escalations:
- Initially, malicious users can steal credentials or gain access using malware and then monitor your activity.
- Malicious users can then infiltrate additional accounts and move laterally through your system.
- With extensive access to your network, malicious users can either steal data or corrupt your system.
