Edison S.p.A. Enhances Active Directory Security

This case study details how Edison S.p.A. improved its Active Directory (AD) security and cyber resilience through the implementation of advanced tools from Quest and BloodHound Enterprise. The document outlines the challenges faced by Edison, including a complex AD infrastructure that had accumulated over 135 years, leading to vulnerabilities and a lack of visibility into security threats. The IT team recognized the critical importance of AD for operational integrity and sought solutions to enhance monitoring and threat response capabilities. By utilizing BloodHound Enterprise, Edison was able to identify attack paths that other tools had missed, visualize these vulnerabilities, and establish clear remediation strategies. The integration of Quest’s auditing tools further enabled comprehensive monitoring of the hybrid environment, allowing for prompt threat detection and response. Overall, the case study illustrates the collaborative efforts between Edison and its partner Microsys to achieve a more secure and resilient AD environment.
