Active Directory is over twenty years old – ancient in terms of technology. Yet it still serves as the primary authentication source for over 90% of enterprises. Even for organizations that are moving more and more to Azure AD, attackers are gaining access to cloud environments because as Alex Weinert, Vice President of Microsoft Identity Security, said in his TEC 2022 keynote, “on-premises is where we’re being attacked.”
In this TEC Talk, Michael Van Horenbeeck, Microsoft Certified Solutions Master, discusses:
- How Active Directory is being used and abused
- How to modernize and secure your Active Directory
- How you can reduce and secure your attack surface
