Semperis, a pioneer in AI-powered identity security and cyber resilience, announced new detection capabilities in its Directory Services Protector (DSP) platform to defend against “BadSuccessor,” a high-severity privilege escalation technique targeting a newly introduced feature in Windows Server 2025.

The enhancements-developed in direct collaboration with the Akamai research team that discovered the vulnerability-enable organisations to detect and respond to exploitation attempts before attackers can escalate privileges and compromise the domain.
