Silverfort’s Unified Identity Protection is the first solution that delivers complete MFA protection for Active Directory environments, eliminating the risk of compromised credentials and introducing cloud-level identity protection to on-prem environments. While MFA does exist for local logins and RDP connections, it is absent from key access interfaces such as PsExec, PowerShell, and others that are extensively uses by threat actors in lateral movement and ransomware attacks. This introduces a critical security gap because unlike the cloud, AD doesn’t natively support identity protection controls such as MFA, making it alarmingly exposed to an attack that utilizes compromised credentials to access targeted resources. The common assumption is that for the foreseeable future most organizations will maintain a mixed on-prem/cloud environment. While transition to the cloud and digital transformation are continuously reshaping IT, Active Directory (AD) is a still a key component in the environment of almost every organization.
