Active Directory exploitation involves extracting Kerberos tickets for service accounts with SPNs via Kerberoasting and compromising accounts lacking pre-authentication via AS-REP Roasting. These methods extract ticket data to escalate privileges within the domain.

BloodHound analysis identifies attack paths and compromised accounts within Active Directory. It maps complex trust relationships and permissions to reveal hidden paths for privilege escalation across the domain environment.

AD CS abuse exploits Active Directory certificate services for impersonation. By leveraging misconfigured certificate templates and enrollment rights, attackers forge certificates to authenticate as arbitrary users and escalate domain privileges.

Yes, Rubeus and Impacket facilitate DCSync and Golden Ticket creation. DCSync steals password replication data from Domain Controllers, while Golden Ticket creation forges TGTs to achieve unlimited access and domain dominance.

Mimikatz and Certipy are required to abuse constrained delegation in Active Directory. Constrained delegation abuse allows attackers to impersonate any user to the delegated service, facilitating lateral movement and unauthorized access.

Hashcat is used during Active Directory exploitation to crack extracted hashes from Kerberoasting and AS-REP Roasting. It processes offline ticket hashes to recover plaintext service account passwords for further privilege escalation.
