Fixing Common AD Security Issues With BloodHound FOSS
Active Directory (AD) is Microsoft’s identity and access management software that controls which users have access to the systems and resources on a network. It’s a popular target for attackers because getting control of AD allows them to deploy malware, steal sensitive information or do other nasty things in a way that’s very difficult for defenders to detect or block.
Making AD more secure involves fixing security flaws within the environment that allow attackers to get in – but first defenders need to identify what those flaws are. AD’s built-in tooling makes it very difficult to see which users have privileges to which systems and objects. So many security issues, even very dangerous ones, simply go unnoticed.
