Active Directory Attacks

Active Directory is the identity backbone of nearly every enterprise on earth — and that makes it the single most valuable target in a corporate network. This course takes a practical, hands-on approach to attacking Active Directory environments the way real adversaries and red teams do, walking you through the full attack chain from initial reconnaissance to complete domain dominance.

Using a fully-featured lab built on Windows Server with realistic misconfigurations, you will learn to enumerate the domain, capture and crack credentials, move laterally between hosts, escalate privileges, and abuse Kerberos, delegation, and AD Certificate Services to seize Domain Admin. Every attack is paired with its corresponding detection and defensive strategy, so you understand both how the attack works and how to stop it.

By the end of this course, you will be able to conduct a complete Active Directory penetration test, map attack paths with BloodHound, execute the techniques used in real-world breaches, and deliver a professional report with actionable remediation — leaving you fluent in both offense and defense.
