Furthermore, Active Directory's role as the central hub for user access and authentication makes it a high-value target. A compromised Active Directory grants attackers a single point of entry to a wealth of sensitive data and resources within the network.
However, it's important to consider that Microsoft is constantly working to improve Active Directory security through updates and patches. Organizations can further mitigate these vulnerabilities by implementing regular Active Directory risk assessments and proactively mitigating identified risks before bad actors exploit them.
