Semperis, a pioneer in identity-driven cyber resilience, launched a security-centric Active Directory migration and consolidation solution. The offering combines Semperis’ new Migrator for AD product with unmatched identity security expertise to help organizations efficiently migrate, consolidate, and modernize AD systems while improving security. Semperis appointed Michael Masciulli as Managing Director of Migration Products and Services to drive the global program rollout in collaboration with Semperis’ strategic partners, who have rigorously tested the tool and will support customers in tandem with Semperis’ in-house AD migration services team.
“Some organizations are spurred to action by their security teams,” said Marty Momdjian, Healthcare Solutions Advisor at CDW, a Semperis partner. “One common finding in cyber audits is that many organizations have old, sprawling AD infrastructures with disparate domains and different standards. Care and feeding for AD was not the priority for the last 15-plus years. These environments are extremely vulnerable to threat actors getting in and causing damage. CISOs are now using these audits as a catalyst for AD consolidation projects to reduce security risks, secure identities, and reduce unexpected downtime. We’re excited about the opportunity to tap into Semperis’ AD expertise and purpose-built solutions to accelerate AD modernization and secure consolidation for our customers.”

Semperis offers a comprehensive AD migration and consolidation solution, backed by industry-leading identity security tools and expert support to ensure projects stay on track while prioritizing AD security throughout the process.
- Preparation: Pre-migration vulnerability assessments with multiple tools, including Purple Knight (to identify and remediate existing security gaps) and attack-path analysis tool Forest Druid (to close risky access and map privileged accounts), plus easy testing of the migration process by cloning the production environment with Active Directory Forest Recovery (ADFR)
- Execution: Monitoring with Directory Services Protector (DSP) to get visibility across all source and destination AD environments, track changes, and quickly roll back unintended changes up to the attribute level; malware-proof backups of the AD forest with ADFR for a safety net; and secured migration with Semperis Migrator for AD, which manages AD object synchronization, password migration and synchronization, and other functions that streamline the migration process without requiring AD trust between environments
“Years of configuration drift, poor security practices, and multi-forest environments through mergers and acquisitions have introduced risky vulnerabilities into enterprise AD systems, creating a huge market demand for modernization,” said Darren Mar-Elia, Semperis VP of Products. “However, most organizations delay these initiatives because of the time, effort, and security risks involved. Semperis is making life easier by offering a comprehensive AD migration and consolidation solution backed by industry-leading identity security tools and expert support to ensure your project stays on track while prioritizing AD security posture throughout the process. With his extensive experience managing large and complex AD migrations, I’m thrilled Michael Masciulli is leading the charge.”
