What does the Security Groups in Active Directory Dataset include?

The Security Groups in Active Directory Dataset includes 1,542 verified security group entries in CSV and Excel formats, each with attributes such as group name, SID, scope, type, and membership size. It also provides MITRE ATT&CK mappings, compliance alignment with CIS, NIST, and ISO 27001, a risk-scoring template, and an access review workflow guide, delivered as an instant digital download for immediate use in audits, risk assessments, and identity governance initiatives.

What does the Security Groups in Active Directory Dataset include? If you're responsible for securing on-premises or hybrid identity environments, misconfigured Active Directory security groups are one of your highest risks: unauthorised access, privilege escalation, lateral movement by attackers, and failed compliance audits all stem from poor group governance. The Security Groups in Active Directory Dataset is a 2024-vetted, analysis-ready collection of 1,542 verified security groups, structured to help you rapidly assess, classify, and remediate access risks across your Microsoft Active Directory environment. This self-assessment dataset enables you to detect excessive permissions, shadow administrative access, and compliance gaps before they trigger breaches or audit findings, transforming chaotic permission sprawl into a governed, auditable access model.

What You Receive

  • 1,542 verified Active Directory security groups catalogued with object names, SIDs, group scope (domain local, global, universal), group type (security/distribution), and membership cardinality, enabling immediate cross-referencing with your environment via PowerShell or Azure AD Connect sync reports
  • Pre-mapped group-to-permission associations linked to common Microsoft best practices and MITRE ATT&CK techniques (e.g., “Account Manipulation”, “Persistence via Group Membership”), so you can prioritise removal of high-risk group memberships that attackers exploit
  • Compliance benchmarking matrix aligning each group category with CIS Controls v8, NIST SP 800-53 AC-6, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 A.9.2.3 (user access management), and Microsoft’s Zero Trust maturity model, helping you justify remediation efforts during internal audits
  • Group risk scoring template (Excel) with built-in logic to flag groups with excessive membership (>50 users), nested administrative privileges, or inclusion in privileged access roles, giving you a quantifiable risk score for executive reporting
  • Access review workflow guide outlining steps to engage data owners, document business justification, and enforce time-bound access reviews, ensuring compliance with SOX, GDPR, and HIPAA privilege requirements
  • Instant digital download in CSV and XLSX formats, ready for import into SIEM tools, identity governance platforms, or custom PowerShell scripts, no waiting, no onboarding, immediate operational use

How This Helps You

Without accurate visibility into who belongs to what in Active Directory, you're operating blind: dormant accounts in high-privilege groups, contractor access lingering after offboarding, and unapproved delegation of administrative rights create persistent attack vectors. The average cost of an identity-related breach exceeds $10 million, and 84% of organisations fail external audits due to unmanaged group memberships. By applying this dataset, you gain immediate clarity on permission bloat, reduce attack surface by identifying unnecessary group assignments, and accelerate compliance evidence collection. You’ll shift from reactive firefighting to proactive access governance, ensuring least privilege enforcement, passing audits with documented remediation trails, and demonstrating due diligence to regulators and board-level stakeholders. Delaying action increases exposure to ransomware propagation via compromised group memberships and erodes stakeholder trust in your security programme.

Who Is This For?

  • Identity and Access Management (IAM) Analysts who need structured reference data to evaluate entitlement sprawl in hybrid AD environments
  • Security Operations (SecOps) Engineers conducting threat hunting or purple team exercises focused on privilege escalation paths
  • Compliance Officers preparing for ISO 27001, SOC 2, or NIST assessments requiring evidence of user access reviews
  • Active Directory Administrators tasked with cleaning up legacy group structures before migrating to Azure AD or Entra ID
  • IT Risk and Governance Teams establishing baseline controls for user provisioning and periodic access certification

Purchasing the Security Groups in Active Directory Dataset is not just an information upgrade, it's a strategic risk reduction decision. You're equipping your team with forensic-grade reference intelligence that reflects real-world configurations, attacker behaviours, and regulatory expectations. This dataset becomes a foundational asset in your identity assurance programme, enabling repeatable, defensible, and scalable access reviews aligned with global security standards. Take control of your Active Directory security posture today with a resource built for precision, compliance, and operational impact.
