Hands-on Active Directory Skills What you'll learn: Active Directory ManagementActive Directory Password ManagementActive Directory Tickets for Technical InterviewsActive Directory Basic Support Troubleshooting Active Directory is the heart of Windows Server user management and permissions. It's a key skill for any IT administrator and help desk staff. The Active Directory Administrator is responsible for managing all aspects of the domain including the users, groups, and computer accounts in the domain. Creating, modifying, and deleting objects are some of the common tasks that the administrator in a typical domain network. The AD object management can be either done through Active Directory Users and Computers or through a number of tools, which allow the administrator to automate the administration.The IT support roles usually get limited access to AD in this course we will cover the skills for ITsupport roles.Danish Haider shows how to configure domain controller and account policies and maintain Active Directory.

The goal is to provide coverage of ADDScomponents of advanced AD DS deployments, how to deploy a distributed AD DS environment and· Configure AD DS Security.The course is targeted to help learning Active Directory and do your job more efficiently.After completing this course, you will be able to:· Describe how to Secure domain controllers· Implementing account security.· Implementing audit authentication· Configuring managed service accounts In your organization’s information technology (IT) infrastructure, securing Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain controllers is a critical task. Domain controllers provide access to many different resources, and they contain information about users and their passwords. If a single domain controller is compromised, any objects in the same Active Directory domain or in any trusted domain are at risk of being compromised, too.The Windows Server 2016 operating system provides features and apps that you can use to help secure your network against security threats. The operating system provides measures to secure domain controllers by minimizing their attack surface and determining their domain-controller placements. The operating system also determines the AD DS roles that are used for administration and design, and implements password security, in addition to auditing when attacks occur. You also can use domain controllers to deploy security measures to other clients and servers in your Windows-based infrastructure.AD DS administrators must understand the threats to domain controllers and the methods that they can use to secure AD DS and its domain controllers. ObjectivesAfter completing this module, you will be able to:· Secure domain controllers.· Implement account security.· Implement audit authentication.· Configure managed service accounts (MSAs).

Next, you’ll dive into Kerberoasting techniques, where you’ll perform Kerberoasting with Rubeus, conduct AS-REP attacks, and execute pass-the-ticket attacks. Finally, you’ll learn how to create and use golden and silver tickets for privilege escalation and network access. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Active Directory exploitation needed to identify, exploit, and mitigate AD security risks effectively.

Active Directory (AD) is widely used by companies across all verticals/sectors, non-profits, government agencies, and educational institutions of all sizes. By its nature, AD is easily misconfigured and has many inherent flaws and widely known vulnerabilities. Due to the sheer number of objects and in AD and complex intertwined relationships that form as an AD network grows, it becomes increasingly difficult to secure and presents a vast attack surface. AD environments can become quite large and often hold many obvious and more difficult to discover flaws. A deep understanding of AD enumeration techniques and tools is essential to becoming a well-rounded information security professional.
