ADFS, Ransomware, and
Identity: The New Frontier for
Cybersecurity

Cybercriminals are opportunists. In most cases, ransomware groups and threat actors aren’t targeting specific industries or sectors, but instead are following the path of least resistance in an effort to maximize their profitability.

This guide will walk you through what Flare is seeing in the infostealer space and why identity systems such as Active Directory and ADFS have become the fastest path to enterprise compromise.

In this guide, you will learn:

  • Why most security teams have not caught up to the reality of massive-scale and broad based infostealer exposure
  • Why a single ADFS credential disclosure is bad
  • About the three malware families responsible for 82.5% of ADFS credential theft
  • The seasonal patterns in credential theft and why summer months see dramatic spikes in exposure
