Active Directory wasn't build for modern threats

Active Directory (AD) is still the backbone of enterprise authentication, yet years of identity tech debt has created a sprawling attack surface. 

Once AD is compromised, attackers own your environment through the same trust your business depends on.

The Silverfort Identity Security Platform

The only platform built for runtime Active Directory protection

visibility icon white bg

Unify visibility across every authentication

See all AD authentications—Kerberos, NTLM, and LDAP—in real time to instantly expose hidden trust path and excessive privileges.
unmanaged-devices-icon-white-bg.svg

Strengthen Active Directory hygiene at scale

Automatically classify every AD account to uncover shadow admins, stale accounts, unmanaged service accounts, and misconfigurations.

Enforce adaptive protection at runtime

Block access or challenge risky activity with MFA. Ensure privileged and service accounts are only used as intended with Least Privilege policies and virtual fencing.
Legacy-systems-icon-white-bg

Close MFA blind spots

Extend MFA to authentications that couldn’t be protected before, including legacy or homegrown apps, command-line tools, and IT/OT systems. No rewrites or changes.

Detect and stop identity attacks

Contain Kerberoasting, NTLM relay, AS-REP Roasting, Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS), and lateral movement in progress. Stop credential misuse instantly.

Modernize without disruption

Minimize risk from NTLM by eliminating weak versions, transitioning to stronger authentication, and enforcing policy-based controls, all without operational disruption.

The Silverfort difference

How it works

Verify every AD authentication across users, service accounts, and systems, and enforce protection in real time.

Operating from within the IAM infrastructure, we see and protect every authentication—so you can finally have peace of mind.

How_it_Works

Every identity. Every resource. Detect and block malicious authentications instantly.

Reduce the risk of ransomware and lateral movement

Stop credential misuse and lateral movement at the identity layer with MFA or deny-access policies.

Strengthen compliance readiness

Pass audits and meet compliance frameworks with all the controls, all the visibility, and none of the stress.

Lower costs and accelerate efficiency

Eliminate stale users, shadow admins, and unmanaged service accounts for better AD hygiene and greater operational efficiencies.

Simplify AD security operations

Power up performance and posture by optimizing authentication activity, reducing failed logons, and removing unnecessary NTLM traffic. Modernize AD without re-architecting apps.
