Lateral Movement in AD: Pass the Hash (PtH) One of the most important attacks in Active Directory is Pass the Hash. Pass the Hash (PtH) attack is a technique where an attacker uses a password hash instead of the plain text password for authentication. The attacker doesn’t need to decrypt the hash to obtain a...
Footprinting Common Services: Footprinting is a crucial step in the reconnaissance phase of cybersecurity, involving the systematic collection of information about a target system. This process is divided into two primary methods: active and passive reconnaissance. Active reconnaissance involves directly interacting with the target system to gather information, typically through techniques like network scanning, ping...
Active Directory A directory is a hierarchical structure that stores information about objects on the network. A directory service, such as Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), provides the methods for storing directory data and making this data available to network users and administrators. For example, AD DS stores information about user accounts, such as...
