Visualize AD Risks in 5–7 Business Days “Active Directory Vulnerability Assessment Service” Launches August 3

YS Solutions Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Shuichi Matsuo) will begin offering a new service, the “Active Directory Vulnerability Assessment Service,” on August 3, 2026. This service assesses Active Directory (hereinafter “AD”) vulnerabilities for companies of all sizes and proposes specific improvement measures.This service not only uses a dedicated diagnostic tool to visualize and quantify security risks in AD—the company’s internal authentication infrastructure—but also consistently provides concrete, prioritized recommendations on “what to fix first and how to fix it.”

We will visualize AD risks and provide concrete improvement measures.

■ Background

Many companies in Japan manage their identities using on-premises Microsoft Active Directory, but because they are unable to assign dedicated security personnel or are overwhelmed by day-to-day operations, configuration flaws and excessive permissions tend to go unaddressed.Many recent ransomware attacks originate from intrusions into AD environments, making it crucial to assess the health of AD itself as the starting point for defense. On the other hand, traditional diagnostic services have been costly and time-consuming, placing a heavy burden on implementation. Furthermore, they have typically only identified issues without providing concrete improvement measures—such as “what to fix and how to fix it on-site.”

■ Service Features

・ Concrete Improvement Proposals: Rather than merely pointing out issues, we provide an improvement roadmap that prioritizes “what to fix first and how,” along with specific remediation methods

・ Affordable Pricing: One-time spot diagnosis for 440,000 yen (tax included). A clear pricing structure that makes implementation accessible regardless of company size

・ Quick turnaround: Diagnosis and report delivered within 5–7 business days of order receipt

・ Easy-to-understand reports: Featuring explanations of technical terms, a traffic-light system for indicating priority levels, and an improvement roadmap—these “company health checkup”-style reports are understandable even for organizations without dedicated IT staff

■ Scope of the Assessment

We use a dedicated diagnostic tool to assess the following six areas and assign a risk score to each identified issue (the lower the score, the safer). The report summarizes the overall assessment and provides specific improvement measures prioritized by urgency.

Assessment Areas: Key Check Items

(1) Privileged Account Management: Status of administrator privilege grants, delegation protection, and residual top-level groups

(2) Kerberos Configuration: Security of authentication methods; application of additional defenses (Armoring)

(3) Password Policy: Minimum character count, complexity, and use of legacy authentication methods (NTLM/LM)

(4) Dormant and Unnecessary Objects: Unused accounts, abandoned settings, AD Recycle Bin (restore functionality)

(5) GPO and Trust Relationships: Group Policy, audit logs, and trust relationships with other domains

(6) AD Maturity Level: Evaluates the level of proficiency in security measures on a 5-point scale

▼ Guidelines for Overall Assessment (Risk Score)

Good: 0–25 points

Needs Improvement: 26–50 points

Action Required: 51–75 points

Dangerous: 76–100 points

* The risk score is the “total number of risk points,” with 0 points being the highest score (ideal). The severity level is clearly displayed using a traffic light system (High, Medium, Low).
