Credential Dumping: DCSync Attack

Active Directory Credential Dumping DCSync Attack is a specialized technique used by attackers to extract credentials from a domain controller (DC) by simulating the behavior of a domain controller itself.

• Setting up a lab environment to simulate the attack
• Understanding the DRS protocol and how the attack works
• Why such misconfigurations occur in real-world scenarios
• Exploiting the misconfiguration
• Mapping the attack to MITRE ATT&CK
• Detecting the attack
• Mitigation strategies
