Understand, clean up and harden Active Directory

Get your Active Directory under control now

See how you can use a Knowledge Graph and AI to consolidate grown structures and create security.

Does the sentence „We probably should have documented that at some point …“ sound familiar to you? In many IT departments it comes up in one form or another whenever you are standing in the Active Directory in front of a mountain of cryptic group names, orphaned service accounts and historically grown naming concepts.

What is easily underestimated here: this is not just an organizational problem. Above all, it is a security problem.

Because Active Directory is the foundation of modern IT security and a recurring target of attacks. It is where identities, groups, rights and access are controlled. Anyone who does not really have their AD under control therefore quickly loses control over who can access what – and why. Put differently: if the AD is untidy, confusing or historically grown and unmaintained, there is little point in strengthening only the outer protective measures.

In our webinar we show you how to not only clean up your Active Directory, but develop it into a stable and resilient security foundation — with clear structures, traceable responsibilities and governance that remains workable in day-to-day operations.

Why you should watch the “AD Clean-up” webinar:

  • Understanding instead of merely administering: We show why object typing, clear naming concepts and defined ownership are decisive in large environments (from around 600 accounts) in order to keep an overview in the long term.
  • The foundation for every follow-up project: A structured AD is the basis for many strategic initiatives – from introducing identity and access management to migrating to cloud environments.
  • Hardening in practice: You will learn how order can be permanently anchored in the system so that governance does not become extra work but part of normal operating processes.

migRaven.MAX: A gain for everyone from the administrator to the CIO

MAX is a comprehensive governance and analysis platform for Active Directory, Entra ID, Microsoft Teams and file servers. Even though the webinar focuses on the AD Clean-up, we would like to show you how migRaven.MAX can support you with other tasks.

Through the combination of AI technology and a deeply interconnected graph database, the system identifies the relationships between accounts, groups, permissions and resources. Complex questions can therefore be analysed in natural language – including specific recommendations for action or automatically generated PowerShell scripts.
