AUSTIN, Texas \u2013 April 14, 2026 \u2013<\/strong> Quest Software, a global leader in data management, cybersecurity, and platform modernization, today released the Quest Security Management Platform, the market\u2019s first unified, AI-powered platform for Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) and secure Microsoft identity modernization. The Quest Security Management Platform unifies identity threat detection, recovery, and secure migration into a single platform, and includes new innovative identity security and resilience capabilities, providing organizations with AI-driven visibility into non-human identities and always-ready disaster recovery capabilities. This unified approach addresses a rapidly changing threat landscape driven by AI adoption, non-human identity growth, and hybrid infrastructure expansion. Now organizations have a single platform to manage risk from AI agents, protect hybrid Microsoft identities from AI-led attacks, recover quickly from incidents, and modernize legacy Microsoft identity systems without increasing exposure.

Identity has become the primary attack surface, yet many organizations rely on security offerings providing only detection controls and limited recovery options. High-risk moments of change, such as migrations and mergers and acquisitions, further expose critical gaps in threat prevention, security and recovery readiness. AI is accelerating both the scale and sophistication of attacks, and non-human identities now outnumber human identities by an estimated 82:1 ratio. Quest Software\u2019s annual State of ITDR research<\/a> shows that more than 75 percent of global organizations do not test identity recovery frequently enough, leaving them vulnerable to potential attacks that could cost millions of dollars in business downtime and recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAI fundamentally threatens the identity landscape at a level never before seen, and one thing is clear \u2013 identity security must include rapid recovery, not just detection and response,\u201d said Michael Laudon, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Quest Software. \u201cThe Quest Security Management Platform delivers solutions that address how identity risk actually occurs within organizations \u2013 across daily operations, active attacks, and during high-risk moments of change such as AI adoption amid migration and modernization. By unifying our industry-leading solutions into one modern platform, customers no longer need multiple solutions to protect their most important assets.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Quest Security Management Platform features two new capabilities that extend Microsoft identity protection and recovery via Quest Identity Defense and Quest Identity Recovery, giving customers ongoing security, resilience, and recovery in one solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
