Active Directory

Hello, guys !!!

Today I'm bringing some interesting topic to you. That is Ransomware. Let's talk about the Active Directory.

AD is a directory service that Microsoft developed for Windows domain networks. It is included in most Windows server operating systems as a set of processes and services. Active Directory was only in charge of centralized domain management.



How does the active directory work?


It provides authentication and authorization mechanisms as well as a framework within which other related services can be deployed (AD certificate services, AD Federated Services)

In the security field, most important thing is active directory because backup maintenance is very easy. In security and privileges can be provided.

Why Organizations need active directory security auditing and recovery


Keeping up with changes to Active Directory is an extremely time consuming and complex process. Delays and discovering and addressing changes can cause business disruptions, as well as security and compliance issues. 

Centralize real time change auditing by tracking the “who, what, where and when” of all changes in Active Directory, allowing visibility into potential compliance violations.

Provide continuous object backup and recovery to minimize the risk of business disruptions, enabling instant roll back of unwanted changes.

Providing rollback and restore of any Active Directory changes or deletions, plus backup and restore of Group Policy, protecting the business from downtime

How get backup Using Active Directory?

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)  Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is a type of attack that occurs when a malicious web site, email, blog, instant message, or program causes a user’s web browser to perform an unwanted action on a trusted site for which the user is currently authenticated. The impact of a successful CSRF attack is limited to the capabilities exposed by the vulnerable application. For example, this attack could result in a transfer of funds, changing a password, or purchasing an item in the user's context. In effect, CSRF attacks are used by an attacker to make a target system perform a function via the target's browser without knowledge of the target user, at least until the unauthorized transaction has been committed. Impacts of successful CSRF exploits vary greatly based on the privileges of each victim. When targeting a normal user, a successful CSRF attack can compromise end-user data and their associated functions. If the targeted end user is an
