Silverfort

Silverfort is an identity security platform that protects organizations from attacks that use stolen passwords and compromised accounts. It works by integrating with your existing identity systems like Active Directory, Microsoft Entra, and cloud providers to monitor every login attempt across your entire network.

What makes Silverfort special is its ability to protect systems that other security tools cannot reach. This includes old legacy applications, command-line tools, service accounts, and industrial systems. The platform requires no agents or proxies, meaning you do not need to install software on servers or change how your applications work.

Silverfort provides features like universal multi-factor authentication, real-time threat detection, privileged account protection, and service account security. It helps organizations stop lateral movement attacks, prevent ransomware spread, and meet compliance requirements.

Using Silverfort is straightforward, and it integrates seamlessly with your current setup. Here are the steps and tips:

• Start by connecting Silverfort to your identity providers like Active Directory, Microsoft Entra, Okta, or AWS IAM through native integrations that require no code changes.

• Use the dashboard to discover all user accounts, service accounts, and resources across your environment. Silverfort automatically maps your entire identity landscape.

• Set up security policies based on risk levels. You can enforce multi-factor authentication for specific applications, users, or access patterns, including legacy systems that never supported it before.

• Enable threat detection to monitor all authentication attempts in real time. Silverfort analyzes behavior and alerts you to suspicious activity like credential theft or lateral movement.

• Review security insights regularly through the Identity Security Posture Management feature, which identifies security gaps and recommends fixes.

• Use the authentication firewall to block malicious access attempts automatically before they cause damage.

• Universal MFA for all systems including legacy applications

• Real-time identity threat detection and automated response

• Service account discovery and protection

• Privileged access management with JIT access

• Authentication firewall blocks lateral movement

• Identity security posture management

• Agentless deployment with no system changes

• Integration with Microsoft, Okta, AWS, and more

• Compliance support for PCI DSS, SOC2
