Active Directory (AD) remains the backbone of enterprise identity, but its legacy protocols and lack of modern security controls make it the top target for attackers. According to Talos IR, almost half of all identity-based attacks focus on AD, while auditors and insurers are raising the bar for MFA coverage and unified reporting. Today’s organizations can’t afford to leave these foundational systems exposed.

Securing AD doesn’t have to mean rebuilding it.

Join Cisco Duo on 3/19 for a practical discussion on how to defend Active Directory by extending MFA to critical workflows and adding new visibility into accounts that often go unmonitored—privileged users and nonhuman identities. We’ll walk through proven approaches for closing hybrid identity gaps, strengthening compliance, and reducing AD risks with new capabilities that make implementation easier and less disruptive.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

  • Why legacy AD environments are prime targets for attackers and what’s at stake

  • How to extend MFA and advanced Identity Intelligence to every part of your AD, including legacy protocols and service account

  • Ways to unify visibility, streamline compliance, and reduce operational complexity
