Case Study: Sanofi strengthens global Active Directory security with Tenable Identity Exposure

Sanofi secures 360,000 users across 170 countries with Tenable Networks

Sanofi, a global pharmaceutical leader, faced significant cybersecurity challenges due to the complexity of its worldwide Active Directory infrastructure. This expanded attack surface, subject to strict legal regulations on its production chain, created risks of credential compromise and network-wide attacks. The CISO's team selected Tenable, specifically Tenable Identity Exposure, to tackle these Active Directory risks at their root and gain a unified view of security.

The deployment of Tenable's solution was rapid and agentless, providing a centralized console for over 25 domains across 10+ forests. It gave Sanofi a real-time, global view of its security posture, enabling the identification of major risks and the creation of a security roadmap. The results included the continuous protection of 360,000 user accounts across 170 countries with no operational impact, preventing security regressions and securing critical R&D data. Tenable's solution successfully integrated with existing SIEM infrastructure to defend against evolving threats.
