90% of cyberattacks target Active Directory. It’s time to ask: Is your AD ready to fight back? ??? In this on-demand webinar, our Principal Technologist Guido Grillenmeier shares how to secure and manage AD and hybrid identity systems — because protecting your organization's identity infrastructure is about more than just reacting to threats. It's about staying ahead of them. ?? Watch now: https://lnkd.in/ga2QH-uv

“If you’ve lost AD, you’ve lost your business. It’s that extreme.” Simon Hodgkinson, former CISO of bp. Most disaster recovery plans aren’t built for today’s biggest threat—cyberattacks targeting Active Directory. When AD goes down, operations grind to a halt. Ransomware, wiper malware, and stealthy attacks don’t just disrupt—they cripple. Semperis AD Forest Recovery (ADFR) ensures a fast, malware-free recovery from even the worst AD attacks. Built for cyber resilience, not just disaster recovery. Because when AD is under siege, every second counts. https://lnkd.in/gPpmSEDm

Do you have emergency-access accounts set up in your Entra tenant? If something goes wrong and all admins are locked out, these “break-glass” accounts might be your only way back in. Microsoft recommends keeping at least two cloud-only Global Administrator accounts that aren’t tied to any individual. These accounts should use strong authentication, like FIDO2 security keys or cert-based auth, and be excluded from Conditional Access. Monitor the accounts for sign-in activity and create a detection rule to alert your team whenever one of them is used. Use these accounts for critical recovery only—not daily use. We’ve seen environments without these accounts in place ... and when something breaks, it’s already too late. #TuesdayTip #CybersecurityTip
