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 guides developers through installing the Vercel Command Line Interface (CLI) and configuring secure authentication. It covers multiple setup scenarios, including interactive OAuth login, setting environment tokens for CI/CD pipelines, and linking a local project directory to a specific Vercel project. Essential for initial project setup and ensuring smooth deployments.

This skill analyzes Active Directory (AD) Access Control Lists (ACLs) to detect dangerous misconfigurations. It uses the ldap3 Python library to query domain controllers, parse security descriptors (SDDL), and identify instances where non-privileged users or groups are granted dangerous permissions like GenericAll, WriteDACL, or WriteOwner on sensitive objects. Essential for security incident response and privilege escalation path discovery.

This script provides a comprehensive security assessment of Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) identity configurations. It audits for risky authentication policies, overly permissive role assignments, stale accounts, conditional access gaps, and guest user risks using PowerShell and Graph API. Ideal for compliance audits, security posture review, and post-merger security assessments.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to establishing SAML 2.0 identity federation between on-premises Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD). It covers the architecture, prerequisites, and practical steps (including PowerShell scripting) required to achieve seamless Single Sign-On (SSO) and centralized authentication authority for hybrid environments and third-party SaaS applications.

This guide details the methodology for conducting internal network penetration tests, simulating an attacker operating from an assumed breach state. It covers initial network reconnaissance, Active Directory enumeration, advanced credential harvesting techniques (e.g., Kerberoasting, Pass-the-Hash), and lateral movement exploitation to determine the full blast radius of a potential breach. Essential for comprehensive security auditing.

Utilize BloodHound Community Edition to conduct deep internal Active Directory reconnaissance using graph theory. This skill maps complex relationships, including ACLs, group memberships, and trust links, to visualize potential attack paths. It is crucial in red-teaming engagements to identify the shortest path from a low-privileged foothold to high-value targets like Domain Admins, or to validate security hardening efforts.

Implements Microsoft's Enhanced Security Admin Environment (ESAE) tiered administration model for Active Directory. This skill guides the hardening of AD privileged access architecture by establishing strict separation between Tier 0, Tier 1, and Tier 2 accounts. It is essential for mitigating advanced threats like pass-the-hash, Kerberoasting, and ensuring compliance with industry standards (NIST 800-53).

This guide details comprehensive detection methods for DCSync attacks (MITRE T1003.006) in Active Directory. Attackers abuse legitimate directory replication protocols to extract sensitive password hashes. Detection relies on auditing Windows Event ID 4662 for unauthorized access attempts to critical Directory Service GUIDs, specifically flagging non-domain-controller accounts attempting replication calls. Essential for threat hunting and incident response.

A detailed guide and set of queries for detecting Golden Ticket attacks in Active Directory environments. This methodology analyzes Kerberos TGT anomalies, including mismatched encryption types (e.g., RC4 in AES-only domains), impossible ticket lifetimes, and TGS requests lacking prior TGTs. Use this during threat hunting or post-breach assessment when the KRBTGT account hash may be compromised.

Utilizes SIEM platforms (Splunk/Elastic) and Windows Event Log analysis (ID 4769) to detect indicators of Golden Ticket attacks. This skill analyzes Kerberos logs for specific anomalies such as RC4 encryption downgrades, abnormal ticket lifetimes, and correlation failures between TGT and TGS requests, crucial for advanced threat hunting in Active Directory environments.

A comprehensive guide for detecting Kerberoasting attacks by monitoring for anomalous Kerberos TGS requests (Event ID 4769). This technique targets service accounts with Service Principal Names (SPNs), which are requested offline by attackers to crack service account passwords. Use this during threat hunting or incident response to scope MITRE T1558 credential access activities in Active Directory environments.
