about how Silverfort secures service accounts.
USE CASE
How Silverfort Secures Service Accounts:
Automatically discover and continuously monitor all service accounts across Active Directory, including unmanaged and orphaned accounts.
Enforce least-privilege access with adaptive Zero Trust policies to block unauthorized authentication attempts and prevent lateral movement.
Secure service accounts at scale without relying on disruptive password resets, ensuring protection without operational downtime.
Continuously analyze authentication patterns to detect and block suspicious service account activity in real time.
Service accounts in Active Directory play a critical role in automation and system-to-system communication, yet their elevated privileges, static credentials, and lack of direct oversight make them prime targets for attackers. Traditional security measures, such as password rotation, often cause operational disruptions but fail to detect or prevent real-time misuse. Without comprehensive visibility and control, these non-human identities (NHIs) become an unchecked security risk, enabling credential theft and lateral movement.
Silverfort secures all NHIs, regardless of scale or complexity, by providing full visibility into machine identities, service accounts, and other automated credentials. Identify and map every service account’s source, destinations, and privilege levels to understand their security posture. For service accounts, you can enforce strong protections with virtual fences that block lateral movement based on behavioral deviations—without disrupting operations. Protect privileged service accounts seamlessly, avoiding risky password rotations while maintaining airtight security.
