Hello, as long as users can access their systems and data, there is rarely an occasion in everyday business to question the permissions behind it. Yet this is exactly where a security risk lies: Can you still understand today why a user is allowed to access certain systems and data – and whether this permission is actually still needed? Outdated, overly broad, or no longer explainable access rights can remain unnoticed and create unnecessary attack surfaces in a real incident. Over the years, nested groups, old accounts, grown permissions, and connections to long-since changed systems accumulate. In hybrid environments, Entra ID and cloud applications are added as well. The individual pieces of information are usually available – but the security-relevant correlations are often not visible at a glance. This is exactly why it is so important not only to capture permissions and dependencies, but to assess them in context. Understand first, then harden in a targeted wayIn our webinar, we show how migRaven MAX looks at identities, groups, permissions, and other dependencies together. This makes it visible where action is actually needed and which changes should be reviewed first. MAX AI helps to ask questions of the captured data, classify correlations, and prioritize anomalies. The decision on a change deliberately remains with the responsible administrator. Because a confirmed finding is not the end of the analysis – but the beginning of a controlled change.
A practical case: what a decommissioned server can leave behind in ADDuring a security analysis of our own environment, we were originally looking for known attack points in Active Directory. In doing so, we additionally came across references to a domain controller that had been decommissioned long ago, which were still present in several places. Findings like these show exactly why plain lists are often not enough. Before anything is removed or changed, it must be clear what dependencies exist, which systems are affected, and how the change can subsequently be verified. In the webinar, we show this case and the path from the finding to controlled clean-up. What you take away from the webinar
The webinar is not only aimed at AD specialists. IT management, IT security, and those responsible for IT operations will also gain an understandable insight into how grown identity and permission structures can be systematically assessed and securely developed further. 👉 Register now for free for the webinar
