In this Their Story podcast, Sean Martin talks with Matthew Vinton and Sergey Medved from Quest about the challenges associated with Active Directory (AD) and the importance of these systems in a company's overall security methodology and posture.Active Directory remains an integral part of an organization’s IT infrastructure as it is the pillar of identity that most organizations use to enable their workforce, partners, and business processes. The trio discusses how Quest helps companies manage their AD environment across a variety of functional areas like assessing the environment, detecting changes, putting in preventive controls, and guiding response and recovery.They also cover the growing challenges security leaders face concerning AD and the gap between the people in the trenches and business leaders who may not understand the inherent importance of AD. Exacerbating this reality is the ongoing security talent shortage, where few new entries into the field learn the technology as it is not as forward-looking when compared to Azure.About the Cybersecurity risk management for Active Directory from QuestMicrosoft Active Directory (AD) is under attack. That’s why cybersecurity risk management is so important. With 95 million attempted AD attacks every day, it should be no surprise to hear AD was the target of another cybercrime. But these concerns aren’t contained to on-prem AD; in 2021 alone, there were more than 25 billion Azure AD attacks. It’s clear cybersecurity risk management needs to be a consideration, and even if the issues you’ve encountered aren’t intentional or nefarious, you still need to be prepared for the worst.Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more: https://www.itspmagazine.com/their-infosec-storyGuests:Matthew Vinton, Strategic Systems Consultant at Quest [@Quest]On Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-vinton/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/Mister_momentumSergey Medved, VP, Product Management and Marketing at Quest [@Quest]On Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/in/sergeym/ResourcesLearn more about Quest: https://itspm.ag/quest-adp23Learn more about the Quest Cybersecurity for Active Directory Solution: https://itspm.ag/quest-pp49For more RSAC Conference Coverage podcast and video episodes visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsa-conference-usa-2023-rsac-san-francisco-usa-cybersecurity-event-coverageAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
