Active Directory Change Resiliency

Argues AD recovery is an essential, often-overlooked part of ITDR: with 50% of organizations attacked and pen testers exploiting 82% of AD exposures, recovery capability matters as much as prevention.

Semperis argues AI-driven attacks are outpacing identity teams as machine identities outnumber human ones 10:1, and urges building organization-wide cyber resilience around hybrid identity protection before the next crisis.

If Active Directory is down, so is your business. Explains why cyber-resilient AD backups matter, the challenge of keeping them malware-free, and best practices for fast, clean recovery.

Four reasons to improve Entra ID recoverability: widespread misconfigurations, the recycle bin's limited 30-day protection, hard-deleted objects like service principals, and hybrid attack-path gaps.

Twelve AD security best practices: minimize privileged users, secure admin accounts, modern password policies, disable SMBv1, restrict NTLM, plan recovery, use SID filtering, and monitor activity.

Hybrid identity attacks can wipe cloud-only objects Azure AD won't replicate. Semperis Recovery for Azure AD restores users, groups, and roles, even hard-deleted ones, to speed cyber recovery.
