A comprehensive guide detailing advanced techniques for attacking Microsoft Active Directory (AD) environments. It covers the entire red team lifecycle, including reconnaissance (BloodHound, PowerView), credential harvesting (Mimikatz, AS-REP Roasting), and critical attacks such as Kerberos exploitation, Pass-the-Ticket/Hash, and NTLM relay attacks. Essential for penetration testing and defensive validation.

This skill helps detect NTLM relay attacks (T1557.001) by analyzing Windows Security Event ID 4624 (logon type 3) for NTLMSSP usage. It flags critical anomalies such as IP-to-hostname mismatches, evidence of LLMNR/NBT-NS poisoning, rapid cross-domain authentication, and verifies SMB signing status. It is essential for proactive threat hunting and security incident investigation in Active Directory environments.

An expert-level playbook detailing advanced techniques for NTLM relay and authentication coercion. Covers cross-protocol attacks targeting SMB, LDAP, HTTP, and MSSQL. Includes methods like LLMNR poisoning, PetitPotam, and advanced domain privilege escalation to bypass standard authentication controls.

This technique exploits vulnerable Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) HTTP web-enrollment endpoints (ESC8) that lack Extended Protection for Authentication (EPA). By coercing a Domain Controller (DC) to authenticate and relaying the captured NTLM credentials, an attacker can obtain a DC machine certificate. This certificate is then used via PKINIT to request a TGT, recover the DC's NT hash, and ultimately achieve full domain compromise via DCSync. Essential for advanced AD red-teaming simulations.
