Case Study: Greif achieves simplified, strengthened Active Directory security with Quest’s Active Roles and Change Auditor

Greif simplifies and strengthens Active Directory security

Greif, a global leader in industrial packaging with more than 14,000 employees and operations at 248 facilities in 37 countries, needed to tighten and standardize control over its Active Directory. The company sought a way to protect sensitive AD groups and ensure permissions for managing AD objects were granted consistently and securely across its distributed environment.

Greif implemented Active Roles for automated, centralized permissions management and Change Auditor for real-time threat monitoring and activity tracking. The combined solution delivered strong protection for critical AD groups, single-click account deprovisioning and restore, and complete transparency through historical logs—giving the team the automation and auditability needed to manage AD securely and efficiently.
