Identity Threat Detection & Response: Mastering the Next Era of Protection

Nov 16 / IT GRC Forum

In today’s rapidly evolving IT landscape, identity systems are a prime target for cyberattacks. With Microsoft Active Directory (AD) supporting over 90% of enterprises worldwide, protecting identity infrastructure is no longer optional—it’s mission-critical.

Join this insightful session led by Dirk Schrader, VP of Security Research at Netwrix, as he explores Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR), a Gartner-defined approach focused on securing identity systems against modern threats. This session will break down how cybercriminals exploit misconfigurations, weak permissions, and hidden vulnerabilities within identity environments.

You’ll gain a clear understanding of essential ITDR capabilities, including how to prevent, detect, respond to, and recover from identity-based attacks. Dirk will also demonstrate how Netwrix’s advanced security solutions help organizations strengthen identity protection and reduce risk.

Attend this session to understand why identity-based attacks are a top cybersecurity concern, learn the tactics attackers use, and discover a layered defense strategy to safeguard Active Directory in today’s complex threat landscape.
