Launching a Stronger Line of Defense Against Identity-based Attacks

Netwrix, a recognized leader of identity and data security solutions, has officially announced the launch of new innovations for its 1Secure™ SaaS platform so to help organizations defend against identity-based attacks and safeguard sensitive information in the age of AI.

According to certain reports, the stated bunch of innovations arrives bearing an ability to combine AI-driven risk remediation with unified visibility across data, identities and endpoints. More on the same would reveal how this combination makes it possible for customers to detect threats faster, simplify operations, accelerate compliance, and scale with confidence.

“Netwrix provides customers with visibility and control across data and identities,” said Jeff Warren, Chief Product Officer at Netwrix. “Our solutions deliver faster time to value, flexible deployment options and a clear cost advantage, helping organizations strengthen their security posture while maximizing ROI.”

Talk about the given assortment of solutions on a slightly deeper level, we begin from Netwrix Access Analyzer 26, which brings forth a redesigned, modern interface built on scalable, container-based architecture, capable of delivering faster security insights, improved performance, as well as unified visibility into identity and data risks across hybrid environments.

Next up, we must expand upon the Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) Security, designed to close a critical visibility gap in certificate-based attacks. In fact, Netwrix is also one of the first enterprise solutions to detect certificate enrollments that, on their part, exploit templates for privilege escalation and lateral movement.

“Data security starts with identity,” said Grady Summers, CEO of Netwrix. “As AI accelerates both innovation and risk, these areas can no longer be treated in silos. Our latest advancements give customers visibility into where their data lives, who has access to it and how it is governed. This insight helps organizations reduce complexity, strengthen protection and stay ahead of evolving threats.”

Another detail worth a mention is rooted in the availability of Okta Universal Directory Recovery, where the underlying mechanism effectively extends 1Secure ITDR with the ability to restore critical Okta objects and metadata, alongside configuration recovery for Microsoft Entra ID. These capabilities, when packaged with Netwrix Recovery for Active Directory, should enable organizations to strengthen resilience across hybrid identity environments in the event of misconfigurations or malicious changes.

Then, there is the prospect of AI-powered Data Loss Prevention (DLP). This one prevents sensitive data, whether in file attachments or text, from being shared through AI prompts in web browsers, including ChatGPT, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, X Grok, and Claude. It also provides full visibility into usage patterns, data classification, and provenance.

Almost like an extension of it, Netwrix makes a commitment to provide DLP support for macOS Tahoe. This involves delivering coverage for Apple’s latest operating system to ensure immediate data loss prevention on Mac endpoints.

Hold on, we still have a few bits left to unpack, considering we haven’t yet touched upon the all-new Password Policy Enforcer 11.1, which solidified defenses against Active Directory-based attacks through detection of reused and weak passwords, secure email notifications enabled by modern SMTP authentication, improved policy visibility for faster, compliant password choices, as well as full support for Windows Server 2025.

Rounding up highlights would be an assortment of expanded MCP server integrations that can extend connectivity across 1Secure DSPM, 1Secure ITDR, Netwrix Threat Manager, and Netwrix Privilege Secure to streamline Netwrix integration with agentic AI in the enterprise.

Founded in 2006, Netwrix’s rise up the ranks stems from unifying identity and data security to provide complete visibility, control and governance. The company’s excellence in what it does can also be understood once you consider it is trusted, at the moment, by more than 13,000 customers, including nearly 25% of the Fortune 500, with its customer satisfaction rating reported at 95%.

“What impressed us most about Netwrix Access Analyzer 26 is how Netwrix has balanced modernization with flexibility,” said Brian Pavnick, President at Eevabits. “The UI is clean, the backend is state of the art, and they’ve maintained the customization options that matter to us as partners. It shows that Netwrix understands the value of community and shared innovation.”
