Case Study: Large Bank achieves reduced Active Directory risk and automated threat detection with Lepide Data Security Platform

How Lepide helped this company secure their Active Directory

A large U.S. bank engaged Lepide to secure its Active Directory after an assessment found AD in poor condition with a high threat surface area. The bank lacked automated detection and response for AD attacks and relied on noisy Windows event logs that provided limited visibility and context.

Lepide deployed its Data Security Platform and performed a complimentary risk assessment, with the support team configuring reports, threat models and dashboards tailored to the bank’s AD environment. The solution uncovered stale data, inactive accounts, open shares and excessive permissions, provided continuous event history and advanced search for investigations, and implemented threat models to detect and respond to ransomware and privilege abuse—helping the bank become a Lepide customer and demonstrably reduce AD risk.
