Active Directory Protection to Ensure Cyber Resilience - New Resources from CommvaultBlog

As cyber threats evolve and become more sophisticated, securing Active Directory should be a top priority for every organization. AD holds the keys to an organization's infrastructure. Misconfigurations, user errors, and dormant accounts can be problematic. It’s also becoming a popular vector for ransomware attacks, as bad actors who penetrate AD can elevate privileges and steal, corrupt, or deny access to critical applications and their data. This allows cybercriminals to silently traverse infrastructure, workstations, and applications to establish their foothold in a centralized location to control business assets. Safeguard Microsoft AD and Entra ID data from a single solutionActive Directory (AD) is today's digital fortress – and it's under siege. 90% of today's ransomware attacks are gunning for your AD. Why? Because it's the gateway to your entire digital kingdom. Check out this solution brief to see how we're revolutionizing AD protection. Four things to consider with Active Dir
