Entra ID & Account Takeover Forensics
Detailed forensic analysis of compromised user and administrator accounts, investigation of MFA fatigue, SIM swapping, and AiTM proxy sessions.
Digital forensics & incident response
Uncover the compromise.
Restore architectural control.
MAITS provides specialized digital forensics and incident investigation services focused on identity compromises, token hijacking, cloud tenant intrusions, and adversary lateral movement.
Evidence when it counts most
Modern identity incidents leave complex digital evidence across cloud telemetry, session tokens, and hybrid directories. We reconstruct exactly what occurred and guide defensible containment.
Investigation scope
Forensic depth across the identity and cloud estate.
We pinpoint how the perimeter was breached, what accounts or tokens were weaponized, and the full extent of adversary actions.
Token Theft & Session Replay Analysis
Tracing stolen Primary Refresh Tokens (PRTs), session cookies, OAuth bearer tokens, and examining illicit app consent grants and permissions.
Lateral Movement & Blast Radius Determination
Reconstructing adversary activity across Azure subscriptions, on-premises Active Directory, SharePoint, Exchange Online, and connected SaaS systems.
Forensic Evidence Preservation & Chain of Custody
Extracting audit logs, unified audit logs (UAL), Graph sign-in telemetry, and disk/memory artifacts adhering to defensible chain-of-custody standards.
Immediate Containment & Eviction
Revoking active refresh tokens, rolling compromised Kerberos krbtgt accounts, isolating compromised endpoints, and resetting credential material safely.
Root Cause Remediation & Control Hardening
Transforming investigation findings into robust preventive controls, architectural adjustments, and hardened detection rules to prevent recurrence.
Investigation methodology
A disciplined, four-phase investigation lifecycle.
From initial evidence capture to final post-incident hardening, every step is executed with precision and technical rigor.
Triage & containment
Establish emergency response protocols, isolate compromised identities, revoke tokens, and halt active adversary expansion.
Evidence preservation
Preserve volatile cloud audit logs, sign-in records, administrative audit trails, and tenant telemetry under strict chain of custody.
Timeline reconstruction
Synthesize identity events, authentication requests, API calls, and directory changes into an exact chronological attack narrative.
Remediate & harden
Close root-cause architectural vulnerabilities, implement phishing-resistant controls, and verify complete adversary eviction.
Defensible outputs
Comprehensive reporting for technical and legal stakeholders.
We provide clear, objective documentation suitable for executive leadership, board risk committees, legal counsel, and regulatory notifications.
