Chief Product Officer @ Cayosoft,

[Dmitry Sotnikov @DSotnikov]

AD & Entra ID security and resilience training days from Craig Birch are amazing and always get raving reviews. The next ones that have registration open are in New York / New Jersey, DC, and the Bay Area: https://t.co/rcBG8EaBw1

[Cayosoft @Cayosoft]

Thanks to everyone who joined us at the AD Resilience Roadshow in Dallas! 100% would "recommend to a colleague" and rated the event as "excellent"! Next up: NY/NJ, June 25!
Seats are limited: https://t.co/npguU7HPKf

@techspence . @Cayosoft Guardian is the best IMHO: https://t.co/FKjnbqnUbU - very easy to use and to configure, covers on-prem AD and Entra ID from one deployment, has alerting and blocking. (I work for the company so happy to answer questions or help with the trial)

[Dmitry Sotnikov @DSotnikov]

@CraigBi41004273 Did you have a PowerShell one-liner to detect these? Or recommended (presumably @Cayosoft :)) tools to address the issue? Or a link to a page to learn more?

[Dmitry Sotnikov @DSotnikov]

Cayosoft's unique approach to #ActiveDirectory #resilience has been officially granted a patent. With @Cayosoft, you have a safe, clean, secure, isolated standby AD in the cloud and can instantly switch to it when #ransomware brings your production AD down https://t.co/EK25Fjvc7L

The #Qilin #Ransomware group, known for the #Synnovis labs #cyberattack, is launching attacks via Active Directory Group Policies. This method enables them to harvest Google Chrome passwords and swiftly deploy ransomware. See below for details, detection, and prevention.

[Cayosoft @Cayosoft]

#Qilin #Ransomware has adopted sophisticated #Cyberattack techniques to exploit #ActiveDirectory. Learn more, including how to detect and protect against #CyberThreats like this. https://t.co/TOXvWX36zz

From @TheEconomist this week - a great testament to how Active Directory resilience is key to most enterprises today!

[Dmitry Sotnikov @DSotnikov]

This was a great webinar. If you are in healthcare - this is very timely with all the recent ransomware attacks on the sector.

Here's my explanation of why today's CrowdStrike / Windows incident had such an impact and how Cayosoft technology makes companies much more resilient to such outages.

[Cayosoft @Cayosoft]

Businesses globally have been disrupted by massive #ITOutage. CrowdStrike update brought down Microsoft systems, like #ActiveDirectory.

Our CPO, @DSotnikov, talks incident impacts and modern #DisasterRecovery with Cayosoft's instant AD #ForestRecovery. https://t.co/ZRGCSwthZs

[Dmitry Sotnikov @DSotnikov]

I had a blast talking to Demetrius Malbrough on his @DPGPodcast. If you are not subscribed, you definitely should be.

[Cayosoft @Cayosoft]

With #ransomware and cyber threats on the rise, Dmitry Sotnikov, Cayosoft CPO, shared his thoughts on how to protect your #ActiveDirectory on the @DPGPodcast. Listen now: https://t.co/HTTZPilmwG

[Cayosoft @Cayosoft]

#Cyberattacks are a constant threat. #ActiveDirectory is a prime target for attackers. That's one reason why Identity Threat Detection and Response (#ITDR) has become vital. Learn more: https://t.co/nlAWQBk66b

[Dmitry Sotnikov @DSotnikov]

@Jaren_Havell @SamErde Check out Cayosoft Guardian: https://t.co/FKjnbqos1s

It does exactly what you mention (Change History for AD), plus Entra/M365/Intune, Threat Detection, Rollback. There's a free trial available & some of the features (including limited Change History) continue working even after

[Dmitry Sotnikov @DSotnikov]

Just closed the investment round that will help us propel Cayosoft to the next level!

@JazonTWong @apisecurityio And also the attacker had to test their membership hypothesis for a specific group. There was no way to simply retrieve all groups - they had to be tried one by one.

[Dmitry Sotnikov @DSotnikov]

@JazonTWong @apisecurityio They made it lower because the attacker needs to be connected to the victim. However, still, I can easily see how this can be a big privacy violation and a stalking tool. There's an expectation that private groups are private and not visible even to "friends".
