active directory pentesting and security
Active Directory Pentesting and Security is an intermediate training to pentest and defends the on-prem active directory environments.
Active Directory implementations manage most enterprise networks, and security professionals must understand the critical threats to the Active directory infrastructure.
Active Directory Prntesting and Security training is designed to provide security engineers to understand, analyze and practice threats and attacks in an Active Directory environment. The course is based on our extensive research in breaking the Windows and AD environments.
The training will be organised via live instructor-led mode, and it is designed for anyone who understands the network infrastructure.
There is a large gap of knowledge that security professionals and administrators often struggle to fill when it comes to AD security. We often found misconfigured environments because of poor implementations and complex policies. Over the years, we have delivered numerous real-world training’s on AD security to internal engineering teams.
The Active directory pentesting and security simulates real-world attack and defence scenarios. We start with a non-admin user account in the domain and work our way up to enterprise admin. The focus is on exploiting various overlooked domain features, not just software vulnerabilities.
We cover topics like AD enumeration, automated & manual attacks, domain privilege escalation, domain persistence, Kerberos-based attacks (Golden ticket, silver ticket and more), ACL issues, SQL server trusts, and bypassing the defences with malware development and C2 servers.

who should attend this training?
This training is a core foundation training. Anyone who has basic Pentesting knowledge can join this training
why should i take this training?
Organizations want to protect their internal infrastructure from intruders, but there is a massive skill gap in the secure deployment of on-prem environment deployment. To fill the skill gap, we have designed this training for administrators and Pentesters. For Pentesters, it’s a golden opportunity to upgrade the existing knowledge. This course will prepare the overall mindset to execute the plans similar to APT Groups targeting the organisations.
prerequisite of the training ?
The person should familiar with basic IT operations
what is the total duration of the training ?
Active directory pentesting and security is an Instructor-led online training.
The total duration of the training is 25 hours.
