Today, the Australian Signals Directorate Australian Cyber Security Centre (ASD ACSC), the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and other U.S. and international partners released the joint guide Detecting and Mitigating Active Directory Compromises. This guide informs organizations of recommended strategies to mitigate common techniques used by malicious actors to compromise Active Directory.

Active Directory is the most widely used authentication and authorization solution in enterprise information technology (IT) networks globally. Malicious actors routinely target Active Directory as part of efforts to compromise enterprise IT networks by escalating privileges and targeting the highest confidential user objects.  

Responding to and recovering from malicious activity involving Active Directory can be consuming, costly, and disruptive. CISA encourages organizations review the guidance and implement the recommended mitigations to improve Active Directory security.
