Summary

Microsoft's Active Directory is a cornerstone of enterprise security, but evolving threats and hybrid identity challenges pose significant risks to its integrity.The increasing sophistication of cyberattacks, coupled with the proliferation of cloud-based services and IoT devices, has created new avenues for attackers to exploit vulnerabilities in traditional security measures. This highlights the need for Microsoft to stay ahead of emerging threats and adapt its security protocols accordingly.Furthermore, the blurring of lines between personal and work identities through hybrid identity management raises significant challenges for security teams.

As individuals increasingly access sensitive resources across multiple domains, the risk of compromised credentials and lateral movement within networks grows.
