Active Directory served as a core identity platform for critical banking systems. Over time, complexity and legacy configurations increased the attack surface. The client needed to reduce identity-related risk while ensuring business continuity and avoiding disruption to core financial services.
ANZR designed and implemented a hardened, tiered Active Directory architecture aligned with modern security principles and banking requirements. The work included threat modeling, architectural redesign, lifecycle management, and development of tooling for continuous verifications of integrity and operational controls. Administrative access was restructured to reduce attack paths and lateral movement while maintaining business continuity. The solution strengthened identity security without disrupting critical banking operations or dependent systems.
