The industry’s most comprehensive identity threat detection and response (ITDR) platform for Active Directory and Azure AD.
See it live
Comprehensive hybrid Active Directory security.
Business applications on-premises and in the cloud rely on Active Directory and Azure Active Directory, making it a critical piece of your IT infrastructure. But securing Active Directory is difficult given its constant flux, its sheer number of settings, and the increasingly sophisticated threat landscape. Protecting hybrid AD systems bring additional challenges, as many attacks start on-premises and move to the cloud. Semperis DSP provides the industry’s most comprehensive AD security by continuously monitoring AD and Azure AD for indicators of exposure and compromise and providing a single view of activities, both on-premises and in the cloud.
Stop attackers from gaining access to AD and Azure AD
Capture AD and Azure AD changes that bypass security logs
Automatically remediate malicious changes in AD
Take back the keys to your kingdom.
Active Directory was not built to stand up against today’s threats. And protecting both on-premises AD and Azure AD in a hybrid environment is notoriously difficult. Plus, attackers often move from on-premises to cloud (or vice versa) in the constant pursuit of elevated privileges—as in the SolarWinds attack. In our mobile-first, cloud-first world, any connected device can expose the heart of your IT infrastructure. You should assume that attackers are already lurking inside your AD, just waiting for the opportune moment to strike. Defenders must anticipate their adversaries’ advances and thwart AD attacks at every stage of the cyber kill chain. Meet Semperis DSP—purpose-built for AD security.

Leverage robust Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and a rich web user interface to give administrators view and restore capabilities for their specific scope of control.
Powerful Reporting
Gain insight into the operational, best practice, compliance, and security aspects of your AD using built-in reports created by AD experts. Create custom reports based on sophisticated LDAP and DSP database queries.
Real-time Notifications
Be alerted through email notifications as real-time operational and security-related changes happen in AD.
PowerShell Support
Use the DSP PowerShell module to automate processes and integrate DSP operations and management into your existing toolset.
Use near real-time change tracking in the DSP for Azure AD module to monitor changes to role assignments, group memberships, and user attributes.
Visualize Hybrid AD Security
With DSP for Azure AD, easily view changes that originated in Azure AD and use the hybrid view to correlate changes between on-prem AD and Azure AD.
Roll back Azure AD changes
Manually roll back Azure AD changes in users, groups, and roles, as well as restore user or group objects that remain in the Azure AD recycle bin.
Restore sight to your SIEM.
A growing number of AD attacks circumvent security auditing.
Unlike tracking tools that rely solely on security logs and agents on every domain controller, Semperis DSP monitors multiple data sources, including the Active Directory replication stream. The AD replication stream is the only reliable method of catching every change, no matter how attackers attempt to cover their tracks. Semperis DSP forwards suspicious AD changes to your SIEM system with meaningful context, drastically reducing the burden on security analysts. You can use pre-defined alerts for Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, and other SIEM and SOAR tools, and build custom alerts for SecOps tools and ticketing systems such as ServiceNow.

How can Semperis help me?
Malicious Actor
A malicious actor gains privileged access and disables native security logs. You discover the breach within 15 minutes and disable the hijacked account. You can’t see what was changed or potentially changed, so to be safe, you restore Active Directory from backup. As a result, you lose several hours or even a day’s worth of legitimate changes, and users are locked out until those changes are redone.
With Semperis DSP, you can see what was changed during those 15 minutes and immediately undo any suspicious changes, eliminating the downtime and rework associated with a backup restore.
Configuration hardening
You perform an annual risk assessment, looking for Active Directory vulnerabilities in hopes of stopping an attack. However, vulnerability assessment must be an ongoing, continuous process. AD is constantly changing and attackers fully understand how to exploit these vulnerabilities.
Semperis DSP continuously scans AD for risky configurations, identifying weak links in your AD deployment. Based on this assessment, Semperis DSP provides a prioritized list of vulnerabilities and trends, as well as suggested corrective actions to reduce your AD attack surface.
Unexpected change to critical group
A user is added to a critical application group by something other than your user provisioning account. Semperis DSP enables you to define notification rules to automatically undo unexpected changes to users, groups, computers, containers, and OUs.
Password changed by mistake
A service desk operator resets the wrong user’s password and changes the CEO’s password by mistake.
An operator with delegated restore permissions in Semperis DSP can immediately undo the password reset so that the CEO can keep their password (without needing to share it with the service desk) and doesn’t need to update their password on all the devices they use to access email, files, dashboards, and so on.
Scripting error
A script adds the wrong users to 100+ groups. With Semperis DSP, you can quickly isolate the mistaken additions and immediately undo them all with a few mouse clicks.
Accidental OU deletion
You delete an OU with 1,000 users across 10 sub-OUs. With Semperis DSP, you can restore an individual object or an entire hierarchy of 1,000+ objects with a single right-click operation.
Inadvertent DNS zone deletion
An administrator accidentally deletes a DNS zone, rendering an entire division non-functional. With Semperis DSP, you can undo changes to deleted or modified AD-integrated DNS zones as easily as changes to user and computer objects.
Misconfigured Group Policy Object
A newly deployed Group Policy Object (GPO) or a GPO that was tampered with by an attacker breaks all production servers. With Semperis DSP, you can track and compare changes and immediately roll back the GPO to the prior version.
Visibility into Active Directory and Azure Active Directory Changes
Tracking malicious changes in a hybrid identity system is challenging. Attackers often gain entry to the on-premises Active Directory, then move to Azure Active Directory (or vice versa) before dropping malware. Without a single view of changes across the environment, detecting adversaries is difficult.
Semperis DSP provides a unified dashboard that shows malicious changes in your on-prem AD and Azure AD so that you can close security gaps before attackers strike.
Time-sensitive Forensics
During an in-progress attack, you have no time to waste in finding and closing open security backdoors. Combing through log files is inefficient when attackers are on the move.
Semperis DSP provides powerful search functionality to accelerate forensics during and after an attack.
Mapping to MITRE ATT&CK, MITRE D3FEND, and ANSSI Frameworks
Established security frameworks can ensure good security hygiene but can be cumbersome to work with. DSP maps indicators of exposure and compromise to established MITRE ATT&CK, MITRE D3FEND, and French ANSSI frameworks.
Integration with SIEM, SOAR, and ticketing solutions
DSP provides pre-built alerts for security information and event management (SIEM) solutions Splunk and Microsoft Sentinel, and the ability to build custom alerts for security orchestration automation and response (SOAR) systems and ticketing systems such as ServiceNow.
