Active Directory security and risk posture management

Risk Assessment and Management

Risk assessment and management is an integral part of proactive security and compliance management.

  • Discovering risky behavior and configurations in critical infrastructure components is critical to stopping network intrusions and preventing cyberattacks.
  • Account compromise and misconfiguration exploits are common techniques used to compromise networks.
  • It can help prevent attacks by giving administrators an edge over attackers when assessing, monitoring, and mitigating risks to their Active Directory infrastructure.

Log360's security risk and status management can help administrators conduct risk assessment and management of Active Directory.

  • The solution comes with pre-built security best practices (recommendations from Microsoft) and checks Active Directory for compliance with those practices, providing insight into risk impact and making recommendations on how to reduce risk.
  • The solution also provides an overall risk score for the Active Directory platform. This capability also helps with compliance audits, as most regulations require businesses to have risk assessment and management systems in place to prevent data breaches.

Security and risk posture management tools

  • Find out if your AD infrastructure complies with security recommendations.
  • Regularly assess the security posture of AD to address vulnerabilities and ultimately reduce the risk of attack.
  • Detect weak and risky configurations on Active Directory infrastructure and perform comprehensive security risk posture calculations.
  • Use extensive machine learning-based User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) to monitor user behavior and identity breaches.

Strengthen AD Security

By keeping tabs on security posture at a granular level through Log360's security and risk posture management, administrators are given an AD Security Score, a percentage value that highlights where they stand in terms of overall security posture.

The rules that affect AD Security Score are categorized as: low or no risk, medium risk, and high risk, giving administrators a complete picture of the different areas that require attention. Log360 doesn't stop at identifying security vulnerabilities; it also provides recommendations on how to fix them. Armed with a broad understanding of areas requiring attention, necessary security measures can be taken to address potential vulnerabilities and improve the organization's security posture.

Custom rule configuration

The security and risk posture management dashboard comes with pre-configured AD security rules based on AD security guidelines from Microsoft, Log360, and CIS security standards. These rules can be customized according to the requirements of the organization, and these rules will eventually become the baseline for AD Security Score evaluation. Additionally, email notifications can be configured to be sent on a custom schedule to help administrators stay informed about security conditions.

Live Active Directory Monitoring

Stay on top of security-related issues in your AD environment with automated and proactive monitoring. Track all security-related activities happening in Active Directory (AD) by monitoring security group membership changes, unauthorized login attempts, account lockouts, OU permission modifications, and more using exhaustive predefined audit reports.

Powerful log correlation engine

With a real-time event correlation engine, attack patterns can be easily detected by correlating AD log data collected from domain controllers and DNS servers, and it also comes with multiple predefined correlation rules that help detect common network attacks, such as brute force attacks, SQL Injection attacks and possible ransomware campaigns. Administrators can customize these rules or create new rules using the built-in correlation rule generator to gain insight into different types of attacks.

UEBA based on machine learning

Powered by machine learning algorithms, Log360's UEBA module can detect anomalous activity in an organization's network by creating a baseline of normal behavior and analyzing logs from various sources for deviations. Detect threats such as insider attacks, data breaches, and account compromises by assigning each user and entity a risk score based on its deviation from the baseline.

threat alert

Provides pre-configured threat alerts that prevent threat actors from exploiting vulnerabilities in the network, through which enterprises can stop communications from malicious sources, and automatically set workflow triggers to block list IP addresses and permanently block them, through its An enhanced real-time incident response system provides contextual information such as an IP's reputation score and its geographic location, increasing visibility into the network.

risk assessment

Risk scores are assigned to different categories of threats based on their severity, including insider threats, data breaches, compromised accounts, login anomalies, and overall anomalies, with associated risk scores increasing when deviations from expected activity baselines exist. Administrators can address the most critical security issues first, leverage contextual risk scores to dynamically measure risk, and by customizing risk scores for different categories, Log360 can enhance security posture and minimize the possibility of data breaches.

Log360 has integrated DLP and CASB capabilities to detect, prioritize, investigate and respond to security threats. It combines threat intelligence, machine learning-based anomaly detection, and rule-based attack detection technologies to detect sophisticated attacks and provides an event management console to efficiently remediate detected threats. Provides holistic security visibility across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid networks with intuitive and advanced security analytics and monitoring capabilities.
