Active Directory Security

Comprehensive assessment and hardening of Active Directory environments to prevent domain compromise and lateral movement.

// Overview

Service Overview

Active Directory is the backbone of enterprise identity and access management, making it a prime target for attackers. Our AD security assessment identifies misconfigurations, dangerous permissions, attack paths, and weaknesses that could lead to domain compromise. We provide actionable hardening guidance to protect your identity infrastructure.

// Methodology

Our Approach

01

AD Enumeration

Comprehensive mapping of AD structure including trusts, GPOs, OUs, groups, and privilege hierarchies.

02

Attack Path Analysis

Identify chains of misconfigurations and permissions that create paths to domain admin compromise.

03

Privilege Escalation Testing

Test for Kerberoasting, AS-REP roasting, delegation abuse, and ACL-based escalation vectors.

04

Credential Security

Assess password policies, credential storage, LAPS deployment, and service account management.

05

Trust Assessment

Evaluate forest and domain trust configurations for cross-trust attack opportunities.

06

Hardening Recommendations

Provide tiered hardening plan addressing critical, high, and medium-risk findings.
