Strengthen identity security before identities become an attack surface.
Identities have become one of the primary entry points for modern attacks.
Privileged accounts, delegated permissions, sensitive groups, orphaned accounts and configuration weaknesses can expose an information system without being immediately visible.
Securing identity environments means improving visibility, reducing risk and strengthening administration practices while remaining aligned with the broader IAM architecture.
Most identity risks already exist within directories and accounts.
Identity environments continuously evolve.
Accounts accumulate, delegated permissions increase, groups become more complex and historical rights often remain in place.
Over time, visibility decreases while risks increase.
The objective is to identify identity-related weaknesses, improve administration practices and define a remediation roadmap aligned with organizational priorities.
Assess and strengthen identity environments
Active Directory assessment
Evaluate directory security and identify the most significant risks.
Privileged accounts
Review administrator accounts and sensitive privileges.
Delegated permissions
Assess delegated administration, sensitive groups and critical permissions.
Orphaned accounts
Identify inactive, obsolete or insufficiently managed accounts.
Attack paths
Analyze identity-related attack paths and privilege escalation scenarios.
Hardening
Define practical recommendations to reduce exposure.
Monitoring
Implement visibility and detection mechanisms adapted to the environment.
Traceability
Strengthen logging and investigation capabilities.
From assessment to continuous improvement
Current environment assessment
Review directories, accounts and administration practices.
Risk analysis
Assess identity-related vulnerabilities and operational exposure.
Recommendations
Build a prioritized remediation roadmap.
Architecture
Define sustainable improvements for identity security.
Deployment
Implement the appropriate visibility, auditing or protection mechanisms.
Validation
Verify remediation actions and confirm expected improvements.
Go-live
Integrate new security mechanisms progressively into operations.
Operations
Support continuous improvement, operational follow-up and knowledge transfer.
Understand the risks before selecting the tools
Every organization faces different identity risks and operational constraints.
Ariovis favors an assessment-first approach to distinguish administration practices, real vulnerabilities and the protection mechanisms that best fit each environment.
Netwrix
Netwrix security and auditing capabilities, including Netwrix 1Secure, are used to assess and strengthen identity environments.
- Identity security assessment
- Visibility over privileged accounts and permissions
- Change auditing
- Risk detection
- Directory security improvement
Technologies are selected according to each organization's context and complement Identity Governance, Privileged Access Management and Access Management.
What improves for operational teams and the organization
Better visibility
Identity environments become easier to understand and assess.
Clearer risk identification
Accounts, groups and privileged access risks are more clearly identified.
Stronger administration
Administrative practices evolve toward a more controlled operating model.
Improved detection
Sensitive events become easier to detect and investigate.
Sustainable security
Prioritized recommendations progressively reduce the identity attack surface.
A stronger IAM architecture
Identity security naturally complements Identity Governance, Access Management and PAM.
Engagements adapted to the maturity of each environment
Identity security work usually takes place within broader programs: assessing a long-standing directory, reviewing privileged accounts, preparing a remediation plan or implementing sustainable visibility mechanisms.
Detailed case studies are published when authorized.
Identity security is part of a complete IAM architecture.
IAM Strategy and Zero Trust
Define the roadmap before selecting technologies.
Identity Governance
Provide reliable identities and governed access rights.
Access Management
Control authentication and user access journeys.
Privileged Access Management
Protect privileged accounts and secrets.
Identity security provides greater visibility into directory, account and privilege risks. It complements the other IAM capabilities to build a stronger, more resilient and more sustainable identity architecture.
Every organization already has identity environments to protect.
The first conversation helps identify the main risks, understand the existing security mechanisms and prioritize the improvements that will deliver the greatest value.
