Understanding and mitigating the unique security challenges of hybrid identity environments
Organizations with both on-premises Active Directory and cloud identity systems face unique security challenges. Synchronization issues, configuration gaps, and attack surface expansion create significant risks.
Entra Connect misconfigurations and sync issues that can compromise both environments
Inconsistent authentication policies between on-premises and cloud systems
Attackers exploiting trust relationships between on-premises and cloud identities
Critical vulnerabilities that affect hybrid environments
The Entra Connect server is a critical bridge between on-premises AD and Azure AD. If compromised, attackers can manipulate identity data and escalate privileges.
Accounts with administrative privileges in both on-premises and cloud environments create single points of failure.
Misconfigured attribute mappings and filtering rules can lead to unauthorized access or data exposure.
Hybrid users may bypass cloud security controls if policies aren't properly configured for synchronized accounts.
