AD + Entra ID identity security — in minutes

Identity Security Audit — AD & Entra ID

How EtcSec audits identity across Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID: 498 detectors, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, ANSSI / NIS2 / HDS compliance and a continuous remediation workflow.

Three Simple Steps

1

Deploy the Collector

Run our lightweight Docker collector on your network. It connects securely to your identity provider via LDAP (AD), Graph API (Azure), or Admin SDK (Google Workspace).

2

Run the Audit

Connect to your collector from our web interface. The audit engine analyzes named detections for Active Directory and Entra ID with live progress tracking.

3

Get Actionable Report

Receive a prioritized list of vulnerabilities with remediation scripts and compliance mapping. Export as PDF for stakeholders or JSON for integration.

Security & Privacy First

The collector runs on your infrastructure — you control the deployment. In standalone mode, all data stays local. In SaaS mode, data is securely transmitted to the dashboard for analysis.

What you get in 5 minutes

Everything you need to walk into a GRC or security meeting with real numbers — not a 60-page PDF nobody will read.

Score out of 100

Weighted against 498 detectors — higher is safer. Track drift after every audit.

Ranked findings

Every weakness, sorted by severity and exploitability, with affected users / computers / groups.

MITRE ATT&CK mapping

Each finding tagged with the attacker tactic and technique so you can brief SOC or red team in plain language.

Remediation scripts

Copy-ready PowerShell and Graph snippets. Close the low-hanging fixes before the meeting ends.

Executive PDF

One-click export for audit files, compliance reviews or board readouts — no watermark.

Compliance mapping

ANSSI, NIS2, HDS, ISO 27001 mappings on every finding so your audit files fill themselves.

Frequently asked questions

What is an AD security audit?

A systematic review of your Active Directory or Entra ID tenant against known misconfigurations, privileged-access weaknesses, password policies, Kerberos attacks, ADCS issues and lateral-movement paths. EtcSec runs 498 checks across both directories in under 5 minutes.

How often should I audit Active Directory?

Continuously. The threat surface shifts with every new user, group, GPO or permission change. Most teams run a full audit weekly and a lightweight scan daily. EtcSec Premium automates the schedule.

Does this replace a pentest?

No. A pentest validates exploitability against a human attacker; an audit catches misconfigurations before they become the pentester's opening move. Use both — EtcSec feeds the pentest scope.

Is EtcSec aligned with ANSSI requirements?

Yes. Every finding is mapped to ANSSI PA-099 (v1.0, 2023), BP-039 and the ANSSI Hygiene Guide, plus NIS2, HDS, RGPD, CIS v8, NIST 800-53 and DISA STIG. You can export PDFs structured by framework.

What does the collector do?

It runs read-only LDAP and Graph queries, serializes the result into structured JSON, and uploads it over TLS. It never modifies AD or Entra. Source is on GitHub — audit it yourself.

Can I audit Entra ID only?

Yes. Point the trial or the collector at your tenant with a read-only Graph app and you get 158 Entra ID detectors covering Conditional Access, MFA, PIM, guest users, app permissions and risky sign-ins.

Where is my data stored?

Audit data is encrypted at rest in Postgres hosted in the EU. Credentials are encrypted in memory only — never written to disk. Trial data is purged after 7 days automatically.

Can I try EtcSec without signing up?

Yes — the free trial at /trial runs a full audit anonymously in under 2 minutes. No credit card, no email required. Sign up only if you want to keep the report past 7 days.

Which compliance frameworks are supported?

ANSSI (PA-099, BP-039, Hygiene Guide), NIS2, HDS, RGPD, CIS v8, NIST 800-53, DISA STIG. Each finding carries tags so you can filter by framework.

Can I export the results?

Yes — PDF for stakeholders, JSON for integration with SIEM/SOAR, CSV for spreadsheets. Trial exports are free; Premium accounts get unlimited and historical exports.
