See overall security posture in a clear dashboard

Lightning Intelligence displays identity security posture for multi-forest AD and multi-tenant Entra ID environments in a clear dashboard. Security scoring enables IT and security teams to quickly detect and mitigate threats before they progress to a full-blown attack, reducing remediation time and cyberattack risk. IOEs are constantly updated by the Semperis threat research team.

Our mission resonates with industry leaders
Darren Mar Elia, VP Products, Semperis

Without a clear view into security vulnerabilities across both on-prem AD and Entra ID, organizations struggle to identify risky misconfigurations that can open the door to attackers. These types of attacks that move from cloud to on-premises are increasingly common because they bypass typical monitoring solutions. Lightning Intelligence brings unmatched clarity to overall security posture, delivered in an easy-to-deploy SaaS format for fast onboarding in organizations of any size—from smaller businesses to complex environments with multiple AD forests and Entra ID tenants.

Frequently asked questions about Lightning Intelligence

What is Lightning Intelligence?

Lightning Intelligence, a prevention-focused module, provides security posture insights for multi-forest AD and multi-tenant Entra environments, displaying indicators of exposure (IOEs) in a clear dashboard to reduce remediation time and cyberattack risk. It is part of Semperis’ Lightning cyber resilience platform for identity-based security posture, ITDR, change auditing, and forensics. Built for seamless deployment in the most complex environments, Lightning delivers continuous enhancements to help organizations stay ahead of the constantly changing threat landscape.

What makes Lightning Intelligence different from other identity system vulnerability assessments?

Lightning Intelligence provides an easily deployed (SaaS-based) solution for continuously evaluating complex environments with multiple AD forests and Entra ID tenants, which are increasingly targeted by cyber attackers. Organizations can easily uncover and remediate security vulnerabilities across these complex environments, continuously track new vulnerabilities, see security trend lines, and generate easily understood reports for security and IT teams as well as leaders.

How is Lightning Intelligence deployed?

Lightning Intelligence is deployed as a SaaS model, which enables frequent updates to add new indicators as they are developed by the Semperis threat research team. To run Lightning Intelligence, you’ll first install a collector on a domain-joined machine in each forest. Installation on a DC is not necessary. The collector runs as a Windows service, handles indicator runs, sends results to the cloud, and reports a health status.  

Is Lightning Intelligence intended for small businesses or larger organizations?

Both: Lightning Intelligence provides easy-to-deploy, online security posture assessment, making it easy for small to midsized businesses and large organizations with complex identity environments to see security vulnerabilities across the hybrid AD and Entra ID environment at a glance. The dashboard displays a security posture score and weekly trend lines so organizations can track posture over time. Lightning Intelligence also accommodates multi-forest AD and multi-tenant Entra ID environments for some of the largest organizations in the world.
