How SUP with the SUSDB database did not want to talk

 

SUP Server (Software Update Point) Configuration Manager actually uses the WSUS service. WSUS Of course, it needs a database, which can be hosted on a "real SQL Server" or on Windows Internal Database. However, there are times when the SUP cannot contact the database and leaves ugly-looking entries in the Configuration Manager log:

 

 

In such a situation, it is natural to check whether the database exists and is accessible via the network. It turns out that although the database exists and is accessible (to the checking administrator), from the point of view of the SMS_WSUS_CONTROL_MANAGER service it is no longer so. Further tracing reveals a notation in the log:

"System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Cannot open database "SUSDB" requested by the login. The login failed."

 

Since the computer account (the WSUS server account) should be authorized for the WSUSDB database, so further exploration on the SQL server side revealed that, relative to the SUSDB database, this account actually had too few permissions:

 

 

Marking the role of webService very quickly healed the SUP server, which after a short time began to work properly.

 

 

In this case, the firewall (firewall) and antivirus program traditionally accused of all kinds of malfunctions were completely innocent, and the whole malfunction was due to an incorrect setting (configuration) on the SQL database side.

Migrating documents to SharePoint and OneDrive

Moving documents from local file servers or other cloud-based solutions to platforms such as SharePoint and OneDrive is a key part of modernizing any company's IT environment. ISCG offers comprehensive migration services that not only include moving files, but also optimizing their organization and ensuring the highest level of security in the new environment. This allows companies not only to access data from anywhere and from any device, but also to manage information efficiently, securely.

Migrating files to SharePoint and OneDrive requires the use of precisely planned document transfer logic. It is important to preserve the file structure during the migration process and to properly map access to documents in the new environment. ISCG pays particular attention to securing access to data at various levels, from the site level to individual files. This allows organizations to effectively control who has access to certain information, which is essential for maintaining data security.

An important aspect of migration is the classification of documents, which enables the proper management of file confidentiality. For the migration of sensitive documents, ISCG ensures the implementation of advanced mechanisms to protect against data leakage. ISCG's experience in working with classified data (access level 3) is crucial here, as migration of such sensitive information requires not only technical competence, but also appropriate procedures to ensure data integrity and security.

The introduction of SharePoint and OneDrive also makes it possible to implement advanced auditing mechanisms to monitor user activity against specific files and sites. These technical safeguards not only protect data from unauthorized access, but also enable rapid response to potential security incidents. In the context of today's cyber threats, this approach to document management and migration is invaluable.

In summary, ISCG, with its experience and expertise, provides secure, efficient and best-practice file migration to SharePoint and OneDrive, which supports not only the flexibility of teamwork, but also the highest level of data protection in the company.

Cyber Deception Services

Cyber Deception is a cutting-edge security strategy that relies on the creation of fake environments, traps and false resources to mislead cybercriminals. It allows organizations to effectively detect attacks and learn from attackers' behavior before they can do real damage. This allows for early detection of threats that traditional security systems (NGFW, NDR) may miss. With confusing paths and attractors, attackers are guided to controlled locations, giving them time to react, minimizing potential damage. With Cyber Deception, we can detect attacks earlier, reduce risks and losses by engaging cybercriminals in attacks against false targets, better understand attackers' actions through analysis in a controlled environment, and increase security by complementing existing security systems in the infrastructure.

Entra ID implementation and audit

Correctness of directory services is crucial for companies to ensure consistency and security in managing identities and access to IT resources. Improperly managed directory services can lead to security vulnerabilities, unauthorized access, and performance and regulatory compliance issues.We have advanced Microsoft specialization in Identity and Access Management, so you can be sure of the best experience from our engineers. We offer a comprehensive Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) implementation service for organizations with a scale of 50-100 thousand users, as well as smaller companies. With extensive knowledge of directory services and integration with various versions of legacy systems, our implementations are efficient and reliable. We support multi-location projects and integration of different domains, allowing for centralized management of access and identities.We also perform one-time or regular Active Directory (AD) audits, which are essential to ensure that the configuration remains optimal and secure. Audits allow you to detect and address potential security vulnerabilities, check compliance with internal and external regulations, and monitor system performance. With regular reviews, you can also respond quickly to changes in organizational and technological structure, minimizing the risk of unauthorized access and ensuring business continuity.

Pilot implementation

The pilot deployment is a key test phase in the Azure migration process, allowing identification and elimination of potential problems before full deployment. Organizations can test the migration on a smaller scale, allowing them to optimize the process. Our experienced IT architects conduct detailed testing, moving selected infrastructure and application components to the Azure cloud, monitoring performance, compliance and security. The pilot phase also allows training for IT teams and end users, ensuring a smooth transition to the new environment. As a result, it minimizes the risk of problems, increases efficiency and ensures readiness for a full migration.
