Quest Security Guardian
Important
Some information in this article relates to a prereleased product which may be substantially modified before it's commercially released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Quest Security Guardian is an Active Directory security tool designed to reduce your attack surface. From a simplified unified workspace, Security Guardian reduces alert fatigue by prioritizing your most exploitable vulnerabilities and Active Directory configurations that demand attention. The solution spotlights what happened if you’re exposed and how to fix the problem.
The Security Guardian Plugin exposes all of Security Guardian's threat indicators, findings, and alerts to Microsoft Security Copilot. This allows all the data to be combined with other security findings (increasing signal strength) and ultimately acted on by Security Analysts to identify and fix vulnerabilities faster.
