Risk management in ADManager Plus

ADManager Plus helps you assess identity risks, understand exposure, and take action across AD and Microsoft 365 to reduce the likelihood of identity-based attacks.

  • End-to-end identity risk visibility

    Gain a centralized view of identity risks across AD and Microsoft 365, including misconfigurations, excessive privileges, and insecure permissions that can lead to breaches, ransomware, and domain compromise, resulting in financial losses.

  • Standards-aligned risk scoring and trends

    Quantify your identity risk posture using severity-based scoring aligned with NIST SP 800-30 and track risk score changes over time using the risk score trend graph.

  • Attack path and exposure analysis

    Visualize how attackers can move through group memberships, delegation chains, and permission inheritance to escalate privileges and compromise critical assets.

  • Privileged entity intelligence

    Identify and analyze exposure around privileged groups, including nested and custom groups, not just default admin roles.

  • Risk-based prioritization

    Prioritize risks based on their likelihood, impact, and exposure context, helping teams focus on issues that materially increase the attack risk.

  • Actionable remediation and assessment control

    Apply targeted remediation measures to proactively secure exposed identities. Customize data synchronization schedules to keep risk assessments aligned with reporting and operational needs.

    Administrator: Quality Assurance and IT Security, Al-Ahli Bank of Kuwait.

  • IT staff in small organizations do not have the time nor the in-house resources or expertise to be familiar with all the system admin requirements that are expected of them to securely and efficiently manage AD and all its intricacies. ADManager Plus saves time, requires a minimal learning curve and is a very intuitive product. Best of all it is a one stop shop for all my AD management needs. ADManager Plus is a time-saver application that provides a variety of informative and well-formatted reports.

  • ADManager Plus's reporting has helped me out the most. With its useful reports, we could take some of the edge off SOX compliance. With ADManager Plus, I could run reports to make sure that we are staying within the compliance guidelines between audits.
