IdentityGuard

Identity Security Posture Assessment for Microsoft Entra ID & Active Directory

Find identity risk. Prioritize remediation. Demonstrate improvement. IdentityGuard combines local read-only collectors with browser-local analysis to assess Entra ID, Active Directory, and hybrid identity environments without requiring raw directory data to be stored on an IdentityGuard server.

Use synthetic demo data immediately, or run the local collectors in an authorized environment and import the generated JSON.

Why IdentityGuard

Identity risk is usually spread across tools, directories, and teams.

Administrators can see users in one console, privileged roles in another, Conditional Access somewhere else, on-premises group membership in Active Directory, and application consent in yet another view. The difficult part is turning those separate signals into a prioritized security picture.

IdentityGuard brings those signals into one assessment workflow: identify the risk, explain why it matters, show what to remediate, track the work, reassess, and communicate the result.

Capabilities

From posture assessment to remediation evidence

IdentityGuard is designed around the full lifecycle of identity security work—not just a single score.

01

Microsoft Entra ID

Assess users, privileged roles, MFA registration, PIM eligibility/activation, Conditional Access posture, applications, consent, owners, and credential metadata.

02

Active Directory

Assess privileged groups, stale accounts, password-account flags, Kerberos preauthentication, delegation, service-account indicators, computers, and domain policy.

03

Hybrid Identity

Correlate Entra and AD identities to surface cross-environment privilege, authentication, lifecycle, service-account, and legacy-configuration risk.

04

Risk Scoring & Visuals

Translate findings into severity, category scores, overall posture, remediation potential, risk distribution, and current-versus-projected security posture.

05

Remediation Playbooks

Every finding includes trigger context, risk explanation, remediation sequence, verification guidance, and modeled score impact.

06

Remediation Tracker

Manage Open, In Progress, Accepted Risk, and Resolved findings with owner, target date, notes, and remediation evidence.

07

History & Comparison

Save browser-local snapshots and compare baseline versus follow-up: score, critical/high counts, categories, resolved findings, new findings, and persistent risks.

08

Executive & Audit Outputs

Generate leadership-ready summaries, PDF reports, management priorities, trend views, Evidence Readiness, accepted-risk registers, sign-off, and an Audit & Evidence Pack.

Architecture

Local collection. Local analysis. Actionable output.

The architecture intentionally separates data collection from the public web application.

No tenant credentials entered into the public siteThe Entra collector authenticates locally using Microsoft Graph. IdentityGuard imports the resulting JSON file.
No remediation actions executed by the web appIdentityGuard evaluates and guides. Administrators make changes separately through approved administrative tools and change processes.
Designed for explainabilityFindings include why they triggered, the affected count, the risk, the remediation path, and how to verify the fix.

Privacy & Security Model

What stays local matters.

IdentityGuard V1.2 is designed so the raw assessment dataset can be processed in the browser instead of being stored in an IdentityGuard server-side database.

✓
Browser-local analysis

Imported Entra/AD JSON is analyzed in the browser in the current release.

✓
No passwords or hashes

Collectors are not designed to export passwords, password hashes, Kerberos keys, or application secret values.

✓
No user content

Email bodies, Teams messages, OneDrive/SharePoint document content, and arbitrary user files are not part of the collector design.

✓
Anonymization available

Collector output can be anonymized when real identity names are unnecessary.

!
Collector JSON is still sensitive

Names, UPNs, roles, application metadata, account status, and security configuration should be handled as confidential security information.

!
Browser-local records need endpoint protection

History, remediation tracking, and sign-off summaries use browser localStorage, so use a trusted managed browser profile.

Workflow

Security improvement you can measure

A repeatable workflow turns a point-in-time assessment into evidence of risk reduction.

1Collect

Run the authorized Entra and/or AD collector locally.

2Import

Select the generated JSON in IdentityGuard.

3Assess

Review score, categories, findings, visuals, and projected posture.

4Prioritize

Start with Critical and High findings and open the remediation playbooks.

5Track

Assign owner, target date, status, notes, and evidence.

6Reassess

Run fresh collectors after approved remediation changes.

7Compare

Measure before/after score and finding changes using saved snapshots.

8Communicate

Use PDF, Executive Mode, and Audit & Evidence Pack for stakeholders.

What You Gain

More than a list of security findings

Clarity

See cloud, on-premises, and hybrid identity risk in one prioritized view.

Accountability

Turn findings into owned remediation work with target dates and evidence.

Measurement

Show how posture changed after remediation instead of relying on anecdotal progress.

Communication

Give technical teams, management, and audit different views of the same assessment.

Privacy

Keep the raw assessment workflow local rather than requiring a hosted identity-data repository.

Governance

Document accepted risk, resolved evidence, limitations, sign-off, and review status.
