Semperis Active Directory Forest Recovery

The software is specifically designed to protect enterprise networks from ransomware attacks that target Active Directory, such as the devastating Ryok or Conti variants. It allows administrators to quickly rebuild compromised domain controllers from secure, isolated backups. By rapidly restoring AD infrastructure, it prevents attackers from maintaining persistence in a compromised network.

Semperis utilizes a virtualized, isolated environment where administrators can mount clean AD backups and inspect them for malware before restoring. This drastically reduces the forest recovery time from weeks down to a matter of hours. It automates the incredibly complex, manual Microsoft forest recovery documentation process step by step.

Yes, the Semperis Directory Services Protector platform extends its protection capabilities beyond on-premises Active Directory to hybrid environments. It actively monitors Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) and Exchange Online for dangerous permission changes or unauthorized backdoor accounts. This ensures complete identity security across both local and cloud-based servers.

By automating the entire forest recovery process, Semperis can prevent massive operational downtime that would normally cost large corporations millions of dollars an hour in lost revenue. Traditional manual AD recovery methods can take days or even weeks of offline time. Semperis brings recovery time objectives (RTO) down to mere hours by scripting the granular restoration steps.
