With Active Directory (AD) exploited in 9 out of 10 cyberattacks, delaying AD modernization—especially after a merger or acquisition—can compound security risks. Security is the most compelling reason to migrate to a pristine AD forest or perform an AD forest or domain consolidation, but many organizations delay such projects due to the effort and planning they require. Security Weekly talks with Semperis CEO Mickey Bresman about the keys to a smooth and secure AD modernization strategy.

Security organizations are increasingly adopting data lakes and cloud services as additions or alternatives to traditional SIEMs, but face challenges like scarcity of data engineering expertise and high data ingestion and cloud compute costs. To overcome these, a new security data stack is emerging, guided by models like SecDataOps and supported by solutions like Tenzir, purpose-built for security data use cases. In this segment, we will be talking about what is driving the heavy use of data in security operations, why that is stressing traditional security operations tools and processes, and what some early-adopter organizations are doing to meet these challenges.
