SearchInform SIEM Integrated With RED ADM to Strengthen Domain Infrastructure Security
SearchInform SIEM, a Russian security information and event management system, has been integrated with RED ADM, an IT infrastructure management platform developed by Red Soft.
According to the developers, the integration allows the SIEM platform to receive data on key security events from RED ADM, enabling faster incident detection and strengthening protection of the domain controller, a critical component of enterprise infrastructure.
The integration brings together two core layers of domestic infrastructure software: domain administration and security monitoring. RED ADM is designed to manage domain controllers and automate routine administrative tasks. SearchInform SIEM handles the collection, processing, and correlation of security events through connectors and detection rules.
For end users, the benefits are indirect but significant. Stronger protection of internal systems reduces the risk of outages, data leaks, and compromised accounts. At the national level, the integration contributes to building an independent IT stack, reducing reliance on foreign technologies and supporting the gradual replacement of Microsoft Active Directory. RED ADM is specifically designed to operate in domain environments and serve as a domestic alternative to Microsoft’s directory services.
Demand From Domestic and Partner Markets
The integration aligns with growing demand in Russia’s domestic market. Since 2022, organizations have increasingly adopted local directory services, administration tools, and SIEM platforms, while the cybersecurity sector continues to expand. According to CNews and VolgaBlob, the Russian SIEM market grew by 18 to 20 percent in 2025, with continued growth expected. This trend supports the development of integrated solutions delivered as part of unified ecosystems.
The integration also simplifies migration from Microsoft Active Directory and other foreign systems. RED ADM supports hybrid environments and enables gradual transition to domestic technologies, while SearchInform SIEM provides visibility and incident monitoring. This is particularly relevant for government agencies, critical information infrastructure, and large enterprises.
Export potential is constrained by competition and sanctions, but the solution may appeal to countries pursuing technological sovereignty. Likely targets include partner markets and infrastructure projects.
Improving Threat Detection Capabilities
In 2023, Red Soft introduced RED ADM as a centralized IT infrastructure management platform. From the outset, it was positioned as a tool for gradual migration from foreign solutions while maintaining functionality in heterogeneous environments.
The platform is available in two versions: standard and industrial.
In February 2025, the updated version of SearchInform SIEM added support for the Kontinent 4 next-generation firewall (NGFW), developed by Kod Bezopasnosti. The integration enhances monitoring and analysis of security events across IT infrastructure.
In April 2025, the MaxPatrol SIEM platform developed by Positive Technologies introduced new detection rules, enabling automatic identification of complex attacks targeting Microsoft Active Directory. This reflects a broader global trend: directory services and identity systems are among the most vulnerable components of enterprise infrastructure, driving tighter integration with modern SIEM platforms. These integrations improve threat detection and incident response. Microsoft, for example, outlines scenarios for sending Azure Active Directory B2C and Microsoft Entra ID logs to Microsoft Sentinel and promotes unified SIEM and XDR architectures.
Toward Integrated Security Ecosystems
Russia is building a more mature infrastructure stack that combines IT management and security monitoring into a unified system. This is not just a technical integration between two vendors but part of a broader effort to develop a domestic alternative to enterprise IT infrastructure, covering everything from directory services and administration to monitoring and event correlation.
Analysts expect further consolidation of domestic solutions into interoperable ecosystems in the coming years. These ecosystems will center on core components such as domain services, email, IAM, PAM, SIEM, EDR, and NGFW. As import substitution accelerates, demand for integrated, tightly coupled solutions is likely to grow. In this context, the RED ADM and SearchInform SIEM integration reflects a broader shift toward a fully domestic digital infrastructure.
