Password Database Audit
Protect your organization from credential-based attacks with nGuard’s tactical password database auditing, uncovering weak, reused, or non-compliant passwords before they can be exploited by internal threats or external adversaries.
Password Database Audit
Advanced Password Cracking Techniques
nGuard performs a comprehensive evaluation of your password database using real-world attack methods, including brute-force, dictionary, hybrid, and rainbow table attacks. By simulating how attackers exploit weak credentials, we uncover vulnerabilities before adversaries can.
Password Policy Enforcement Review
Our audit compares actual user password behavior against your organization’s stated password policies. We identify gaps in complexity, length, expiration, and reuse requirements, providing insight into how well your users adhere to established security standards.
Credential Risk Exposure and Recommendations
Using industry best practices and attacker-style methodologies, nGuard identifies exposed or guessable passwords that pose a high risk of compromise. We provide prioritized recommendations for remediation and policy improvements to reduce the likelihood of a successful breach.
Statistical Password Strength Analysis
nGuard delivers detailed statistical breakdowns of your password database, categorizing credentials by strength, risk level, and policy compliance. These analytics help you measure the true effectiveness of your password security posture across departments and user groups.
