Active Directory controls access to nearly every application, file, and system in your network. That's exactly why it's the first thing attackers go after. Get privileged access to AD, and an attacker doesn't need to break into ten different systems. They just need one path in, and from there they can move freely, escalate privileges, and sit undetected for weeks. AI is making this worse. Faster reconnaissance, sharper phishing, quicker lateral movement, all pointed straight at identity infrastructure.

In this series, we chat with cybersecurity and data resilience leaders from Kroll and our partners. This week's guest is Gaurav Sheth, Global Head of Digital Identity, Data and OT Security. Future episodes will cover topics such as the Cyber Threat Landscape, AI Risk Governance and Private Equity.

What separates a calm security team from one that's scrambling during a zero-day? Daniel dos Santos discusses the importance of asset visibility, network reachability, pre-approved controls, and response playbooks when responding to emerging threats.
