- Active Directory Assessment
Do you know who has access to your company's network?
Over the years, employees, suppliers, and IT systems change. But are all access rights and security settings reviewed on a regular basis?
Outdated accounts, unnecessary administrator privileges, or forgotten settings can create security risks and give attackers the opportunity to gain deeper access to your IT environment.
With our Active Directory Assessment, we examine the accounts, permissions, and settings within your Active Directory. You’ll gain insight into potential security risks and receive a concrete improvement plan with priorities, so you’ll know which measures to address first.
What do we evaluate during the assessment?
We analyze your Active Directory to assess various components that play a key role in the security of your IT environment.
Administrator accounts and access rights
Which accounts have extensive administrative privileges? Are those permissions still necessary, and do certain accounts pose an additional security risk?
User rights and permissions
The assignment of access rights within Active Directory is reviewed, with a focus on users and systems that may have more rights than necessary.
Service accounts and password policy
We review which accounts are used by applications and services and check the corresponding password settings.
Outdated systems and protocols
Outdated technologies and systems can pose security risks. We’ll check where they’re still present.
Trust relationships and security settings
Trust relationships between domains, group policy settings, and the configuration of internal certificate services are also examined.
Integration with Microsoft Entra ID
Is your local Active Directory linked to Microsoft Entra ID? Then we’ll also check this link and the associated permissions and settings.

We'll discuss the results
During a wrap-up meeting, we’ll explain the key findings and discuss which improvements should be prioritized.
From insights to concrete improvements
After the assessment, you’ll know where the most significant security risks lie within your Active Directory and what steps you can take to address them.
You will receive:
- A technical report outlining the identified issues and risks.
- An improvement plan with clear priorities and proposed solutions.
- An executive summary of the key conclusions.
- An overview of the relevant CyberFundamentals Basic measures examined by the assessment.
The assessment is a one-time analysis and does not involve any changes to your configuration. Would you like to have the suggested improvements implemented? In that case, Office-IT can assist you with that through a separate process, while taking into account the operation and continuity of your IT environment.
Would you also like to have the security settings of your Microsoft 365 environment reviewed and monitored?
