Mergers and Acquisitions

Analyze and assess the entire Microsoft and Active Directory environments of the acquired or divested organization with a repeatable software and services framework. Conduct an in-depth pre-migration analysis to uncover any technical and security concerns in the source IT environments, including possible attack paths that cyberattackers can exploit. Then, you can develop the deployment approach that will work best for your needs, remediating any of these issues before you start the first migration job and reducing the risk of missed deadlines and IT integration failures.

• Maintain focus on the business needs for Legal Day 1 and End State
• Identify infrastructure and cloud cost savings
• Establish Active Directory security gaps, baselines and procedures

Ensure mail, calendars, resources and critical applications are connected on Legal Day 1 with Quest migration solutions. Securely move content, permissions and critical Tier 0 assets to the correct locations while maintaining seamless coexistence and user productivity throughout the project. Use built-in reporting to maintain communication with key stakeholders and ensure the right users are provisioned in strict accordance with the least-privilege model.

• Monitor for suspicious behavior, insider threats and unusual access or changes to data before, during and after Day 1 transitions
• Maintain productivity during the migration with detection, diagnostics and resolution, including effective backup and recovery
• Uphold compliance standards with change management and UBA

Establish a top-to-bottom AD cyber-resiliency framework that lets you tackle adversaries at every layer of the NIST Framework. Attain cyber-resilience and a layered defense that protects you against every phase of an attack lifecycle, so you mitigate risks before, during and after an attack.

• Identify indicators of exposure (IOEs) and prioritize the attack paths cybercriminals could use to take over your environment.
• Protect your environment so attackers can’t make changes to critical groups, GPO settings or exfiltrate your AD database to steal credentials.
• Detect indicators of compromise (IOCs) with real-time auditing, anomaly detection and alerting.
• Respond to threats and rapidly gather information to accelerate investigations.
• Recover AD from any attack, big or small, and restore business operations, data integrity and customer trust in minutes or hours instead of weeks or months.
