Executes authorized, advanced attack simulations against Active Directory environments to identify critical misconfigurations, weak credentials, and exploitable trust relationships. Utilizing industry tools like BloodHound, Mimikatz, and Impacket, this process simulates complex attacks such as Kerberoasting, Golden Ticket forging, and domain compromise path analysis, helping organizations validate their security posture against real-world threats.

Use XM Cyber to continuously map attack paths, uncover choke points, and prioritize the small set of exposures that can threaten critical assets across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid environments.

BloodHound is an open-source reconnaissance tool that leverages graph theory to analyze Active Directory relationships. This guide details the process of collecting AD data using SharpHound and visualizing complex attack paths. It helps identify potential privilege escalation chains, trust abuses, and misconfigurations necessary for an attacker to move from a low-privilege user account to Domain Admin, making it essential for advanced red-teaming and security auditing.

This skill systematically enumerates and audits Active Directory forest trust relationships using advanced techniques like SID filtering analysis, detecting SID history abuse, and assessing inter-realm Kerberos ticket configurations. It is designed for red-teaming and security auditing to identify potential lateral movement paths and trust vulnerabilities across organizational boundaries.

Conducts a comprehensive Active Directory penetration test, covering domain enumeration, misconfiguration discovery, and attack path analysis using BloodHound. Techniques include exploiting Kerberos weaknesses (Kerberoasting, AS-REP Roasting) and escalating privileges via DCSync and constrained delegation, culminating in domain compromise demonstration.
