Cyber Defense eMagazine March Edition for 2022

The view from the Publisher’s desk is very encouraging, based on celebrating 10 years of growth and success at Cyber Defense Magazine! When our tiny team began our journey at Cyber Defense Media Group (CDMG) together in January 2012, we were happy to help smaller, lesser-known innovators of infosec, get their message out there and Rise Above the noise. Now, after 10 years, we’re even helping multi-billion-dollar companies and governments around the globe with our offices in DC, London, FL, NY and other locations in play, as we continue to scale, thanks to you – our readers, listeners, viewers and media partners. Beyond the magazine, in response to the demands of our markets, the scope of CDMG’s activities has grown into many media endeavors. They now include Cyber Defense Awards; Cyber Defense Conferences; Cyber Defense Professionals (job postings site being revamped); Cyber Defense TV, Radio, and Webinars; and Cyber Defense Ventures (partnering with investors). Please check them out and see how much more CDMG has to offer! Very respectfully and with much appreciation, Gary Miliefsky, Publisher

5 Reasons Organizations Need Comprehensive AD<br />

Security Across Cloud and On-Prem<br />

Why Organizations Need to Secure Directory Services in a Hybrid Deployment from<br />

Attack Paths<br />

By Justin Kohler, Director of BloodHound Enterprise at SpecterOps<br />

Microsoft Active Directory is one of the most common identity and access management plat<strong>for</strong>ms in the<br />

world, which un<strong>for</strong>tunately makes it a prime target <strong>for</strong> attackers. Attack Paths in Active Directory (AD)<br />

can give attackers nearly unlimited access to the rest of the network, allowing them to steal sensitive<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation and deploy malware while avoiding detection. Like many other things in security, the task of<br />

securing AD gets more complex as organizations move workloads to the cloud. The public cloud<br />

providers have their own IAM infrastructure (Azure AD & Azure Resource Manager in Azure, IAM and<br />

AWS Organizations in Amazon Web Services, etc.) that organizations need to defend along with onpremises<br />

AD. Hybrid environments allow attacks to move from on-premises AD to the cloud or in reverse,<br />

making use of weak spots in both. Comprehensive protection is the best way to ensure the organization’s<br />

sensitive data remains safe.<br />
