Semperis, an Israeli-American identity security and resilience provider for Active Directory and provider of successful community tools purple knight, has released Forest Druid, a new Tier 0 attack vector detection tool for Active Directory environments.

Forrest Druid visualizes Tier 0 resources in AD and provides information about those entities. Floodlights any remaining connections with. This helps to substantially reduce the unnecessary permissions that are responsible for most attack paths for sensitive assets. Forest Druid’s Tier 0 detection capabilities, of compromise and attack indicators When combined with Purple Knight’s comprehensive scans, they are a very powerful tool for IT security.

In a typical enterprise Active Directory, there are countless attack vectors that an attacker can use to gain control of a domain. The problem is obvious: disproportionate permissions. However, it is impossible for IT security managers to examine every group and every user relationship. Rather than focusing on all possible attack paths, Forest Druid allows organizations to define permission perimeters to restrict risky relationships in one place—Tier-0 assets and closely related entities whose attackers are more permissive. can exploit.

“Traditional tools that analyze the most common attack paths to gain control of a domain from the outside are very useful for attackers, but not defenders,” says Ran Harrell, principal security product manager at Semperis. “Beginning with defining the perimeter of permission, the Forrest Druid’s ability to defend from the inside out, is optimal for defenders. After all, the most commonly used attack avenues are not always the most dangerous. It is Tier 0 is about effectively protecting critical assets and attacking avenues secondary to that.”
