Although Active Directory (AD) is widely used by organizations, it can pose significant security risks when there are inadequate security controls. Many organizations have multiple AD domains due to mergers, acquisitions, and decentralized IT. AD sprawl can multiply security risks and make it difficult to standardize security policies. In this on-demand recording, Quest Principal Solutions Architect Joe Sharmer and Active Directory MVP Brian Desmond offer a deep dive into how to secure AD through a migration.
They discuss:
- Common AD security risks and configuration challenges
- Potential effects of these problems in multi-domain AD environments
- Strategies for reducing risk via domain consolidation
