Can ChatGPT Help with a Penetration Test? Real-World Hacking Test vs PentestGPT

Can ChatGPT really assist in a penetration test? In this short clip, security expert Brian Johnson puts it to the test against an Active Directory environment… and let’s just say, the results are less than helpful. Find out why tools like PentestGPT are gaining momentum in ethical hacking in this webinar, "Hack the Hackers: Exploring ChatGPT and PentestGPT in Penetration Testing": netwrix.com/go/exploring-chatgpt-and-pentestgpt-yt.

Ransomware Detection and Response: Strengthening Your Cyber Resilience

In 2024, the average ransom payment surged to nearly $4 million, more than double the previous year, while over 70% of ransomware incidents involved data encryption (Source: The Latest Ransomware Statistics & Trends ). These figures underscore the growing scale and sophistication of ransomware threats. As attackers refine their tactics and target critical infrastructure, organizations must adopt a more strategic and proactive approach to detection and response.

dMSAs Are the New AD Privilege Escalation Target - Here's What You Need to Know

Windows Server 2025 introduced delegated managed service accounts (dMSAs) to improve security by linking service authentication to device identities. But attackers have already found a way to twist this new feature into a dangerous privilege escalation technique. The BadSuccessor attack lets adversaries impersonate any user — even domain admins — without triggering traditional alerts. Here’s how it works, why it’s so stealthy, and what you can do to stay ahead of it.

Why Security Teams Must Rethink Incident Response for Identity Attacks

Blocking a CEO's account to stop an anomaly? It might stop your business too. When implementing Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR), security teams must balance robust protection and business continuity. In this clip, our expert explains why blindly blocking access can cause more damage and how identity-proofing methods, like 2FA and push notifications, offer a smarter approach. Rethink your strategy to keep security seamless.

Netwrix Named Visionary in DSPM at 2025 Global InfoSec Awards

We’re thrilled to announce that Netwrix Access Analyzer has been named a Visionary in Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) at the 2025 Global InfoSec Awards, presented by Cyber Defense Magazine during this year’s RSA Conference. This recognition underscores Netwrix’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of what modern data security solutions can do — especially in a world where sensitive data sprawls across cloud, on-premises and hybrid environments.

Microsoft Copilot and Data Security: Tracing AI's Role in the Enterprise

Artificial intelligence is no longer a distant vision—it’s a present-day force reshaping how enterprises manage, process, and secure their data. Among the most influential innovations driving this transformation is Microsoft Copilot. Marketed as an AI-powered productivity enhancer, Copilot integrates seamlessly with Microsoft 365 applications, unlocking new levels of efficiency across industries.

Why Identity Threats Are Harder to Detect

When a single identity is linked to multiple accounts across your environment, visibility gaps can occur, opening opportunities for attackers to exploit. This risk is especially high for executives and privileged users with access to your most sensitive data. In this clip, our expert Tyler Reese explains why identity correlation is essential for proactive threat detection and ITDR. Learn how identity mapping and account cataloging enhance SOC visibility and help prevent cross-account attacks.

Key Findings: The Role of DSPM in Addressing AI and Cloud Threats

As the cyber threat landscape continues to evolve, organizations face unprecedented challenges in securing their digital assets. With 49% of workloads already in the cloud and the rise of AI-driven threats, organizations are increasingly vulnerable to data breaches, compliance failures, and malicious actions.

A Real Example of Copilot Exposing Sensitive Data

Is Microsoft Copilot putting your sensitive data at risk? AI tools like Copilot can unintentionally expose sensitive information through indirect queries leading to data leaks, insider threats, and compliance risks. In this webinar, we break down real-world examples of how over-permissioned access and prompt manipulation can bypass security controls and what you can do to prevent it. Stay ahead of AI-driven threats.

Why Identity Compromises Require Surgical Remediation

Reimaging a laptop is easy. Remediating a compromised identity? Not so much. In this webinar snippet, Tyler Reese explains why traditional remediation tactics don’t work for Active Directory compromises — and what security teams should do instead. Rather than starting from scratch, take a targeted approach to locate and neutralize attacker persistence while maintaining business continuity. Learn the importance of surgical remediation in identity security and how to mitigate risk without disrupting your operations.
