Presented by Ryan Garrett, Sr Sales Engineer • Rubrik
In today’s threat landscape, identity-related attacks are rapidly increasing in both frequency and sophistication, targeting core identity engines like Active Directory and Entra ID. This presentation will explore the modern attacker’s playbook, walking through the typical kill chain and the potential impact on an organization’s environment, spanning on-premises infrastructure, cloud, and SaaS applications. We will analyze the limitations and risks associated with current protection strategies—such as relying on point solutions, exposed backup data, and the complexities of Active Directory and Entra ID restoration, which often involve multiple tools and intricate forest-level recoveries.
The session will emphasize the importance of breaking down silos between identity management, data protection, and security teams. Attendees will come away with practical recommendations for collaborative recovery planning, including the value of conducting mock exercises to ensure readiness. By understanding the evolving threats and rethinking recovery strategies, organizations can better defend their most critical digital assets.
