Attack path management has historically focused on identity systems like Active Directory and Entra ID. That focus made sense. These systems define authentication, authorization, and privilege at scale, and they remain central to how access is granted across an environment. But they are not the full picture. There are entire classes of systems that introduce attack paths that do not exist in the directory. Device management platforms are one of the most important examples. These systems are resp
Perhaps the most important aspect of modeling Jamf is what happens when these capabilities intersect with other platforms. In real environments, attackers rarely operate within a single system. They move between identity providers, device management platforms, and other services as they progress toward their objective. This creates hybrid attack paths spanning multiple systems. We can then identify a path from a non-privileged Active Directory User to one of the jamf_Account nodes that had execu
BadWindowService is chock-full of vulnerabilities and includes a lot of text in the README and logged messages, making it clear that this is intentionally vulnerable. Despite removing those, the response to the following system prompt and prompt was Claude’s conclusion that this is intentionally vulnerable due to the sheer volume of security controls circumvented. It did present its findings in a nice table for further investigation. # Application Information### DescriptionThis is the source cod
Identity is no longer confined to a single system. In modern environments, identity spans multiple platforms: Active Directory, Okta, Entra, GitHub, and others; each operating within its own environment, with its own model for authentication and access. These systems are connected through federation, synchronization, and single sign-on. Each connection serves a legitimate purpose, enabling organizations to manage identity centrally while extending access across platforms. But these connections a
In practice, these relationships rarely present themselves as a single, obvious chain. They are distributed across platforms, environments, and teams, each with its own perspective on identity and access. Consider a typical scenario. An organization uses Active Directory as an upstream identity source, federated into an Okta environment. That Okta environment is then used to provide single sign-on into a set of downstream applications. In some cases, those relationships extend further, to additi
One thing that comes as a surprise is that native Okta attack paths are relatively short when compared to our security models of Active Directory (AD) and Microsoft Entra ID. There are multiple reasons for this: Okta does not support group nesting and only users can be members of groups Many theoretical privilege elevation paths are intentionally mitigated by only allowing Super Administrators (the most privileged role in Okta) to modify users, groups, and applications that have role assignme
Workflows in Okta provide a robust way to automate tasks related to user provisioning and deprovisioning. To achieve this, Okta must be granted non-trivial permissions in connected systems. Here is an example of permissions needed by the Microsoft Office 365 connector: Figure 17. Example Okta Workflows connector permissions. Anyone in control of the workflow could perform administrative actions in Microsoft Entra. As there is no documented API for reading the information about existing workflows
Okta’s Active Directory agents can be installed on member servers to provide synchronization of AD users and groups to/from Okta. This capability is thus similar to Microsoft’s Entra Connect. Unlike Microsoft, Okta recommends for the synchronization service accounts to be added to the Domain Admins group in AD, granting Okta administrators unlimited control over Active Directory. As managed service accounts are not supported by Okta, a human must set and manually rotate service account passwords
This is one of the clearest examples of GitHub acting as an interchange between systems. It is also one of the easiest relationships to miss because the answer depends on understanding GitHub’s control over branches, workflows, and environments, as well as Azure trust configuration.
This matters because it reveals GitHub’s security dependencies. Through the lens of the Clean Source Principle, if GitHub relies on Entra ID or another identity provider for SSO, then compromise of that upstream source has direct implications for GitHub as well. That dependency is easy to underappreciate when GitHub is viewed in isolation rather than as part of a larger identity fabric.
Securing a single platform is really hard, just ask any Active Directory or Entra ID admin. We’ve used the analogy before but think of a single Active Directory domain or Entra ID tenant as a map of the United States. Instead of cities connected by roads, these environments are identities and resources linked by privileges and user behaviors. The number of attack paths within a single domain or tenant is higher than the number routes across within the United States. If that wasn’t bad enough, at
La part de marché de Power BI favorise l’accès à des compétences, à du support et à des ressources de formation. Son intégration « profonde » avec des applications comme Teams et Excel est un avantage pour qui a standardisé sa productivité sur Office. Autre point distinctif : l’offre Microsoft Fabric, qui unifie data engineering, warehousing et BI en un SaaS, minimisant ainsi l’effort d’intégration.
Existing Dependency-Track 4.x deployments continue to receive security and high severity fixes on the 4.14.x line for at least roughly six months after this release. v5 does not upgrade in place: it runs on its own PostgreSQL cluster and ingests v4 data through an offline, one time migrator, so teams should plan a maintenance window. Operators should note the headline breaking changes. PostgreSQL is now the only supported database, replacing H2, MySQL, and Microsoft SQL Server. Notification payl
Security teams today are data savvy and are always looking for full visibility into their telemetry. Defender has long provided over 200 types of raw event types, each enriched with numerous properties and accessible through the threat hunting experience in the Defender portal. But each organization has unique data requirements, so many security teams use complex add-on products to collect and analyze additional data, contributing to the already overwhelming number of solutions they’re using. Th
Upgrading to the latest versions of each operating system as soon as possible is critical to optimize your security, but we understand that this is simply not realistic for many organizations. Our data shows that more than 90% of enterprises continue to have at least some legacy devices in their environment. Attackers know they present gaps in even the tightest security posture. That’s why today we are improving Defender’s coverage with expanded support for Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 to help
The Defender deployment tool streamlines the onboarding process by dynamically adapting to the operating system, delivering healthy endpoint security to a diverse estate of Windows devices. It is the preferred automated solution that works on modern and legacy devices and removes the need for a separate onboarding file by embedding the onboarding package and all related information within a downloadable .exe that can be run to onboard devices. This updated experience makes onboarding more predic

Analysts followed the standard DKM extraction path, retrieving the encrypted blob from the WID database and decrypting it using the DKM material stored in Active Directory. The extraction succeeded, but the recovered certificate was no longer valid for token signing, and Entra ID rejected the resulting tokens with AADSTS500172 due to invalid signing material. Although structurally correct, the artifact is not usable for authentication, as the active signing key resides in the system’s machine-sc
In this test, Claude Sonnet 4 was asked to open a shared document from a colleague. It found an email with a “Q1 Project Timeline” link, clicked it, saw a Microsoft 365 login form, looked up the user’s real password in the vault, typed it in, and hit submit. When the page didn’t load, it tried again. Here, the model fell into the same trap that many people do in phishing attacks: it failed to examine the web address. The link pointed to acmecorp-sharepoint.com-docs.cloud, a domain designed to lo
