What You Will Learn
This advanced bootcamp is designed to help security professionals understand, analyze and practice threats and attacks in a modern, multi-forest Active Directory environment with fully patched Server 2019 machines.
In addition to learning the popular tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs), you will also see how they change for attacks across forest trusts. You will also learn how to abuse or bypass modern Windows defenses like Advanced Threat Analytics, Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS), Just Enough Administration (JEA), Resource-Based Constrained Delegation (RBCD), Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC), Application Whitelisting (AWL), Constrained Language Mode (CLM), virtualization and more.

Build Your Cybersecurity Credentials
Become a Certified Red Team Expert (CRTE)
A certificate holder has demonstrated the capability of enumerating and understanding an unknown Windows network and can identify misconfigurations, functionality abuse and trusts abuse. She can use, write and modify open source tools and can abuse other built-in tools to perform enumeration, local privileges escalation, impersonation, pivoting, whitelisting bypasses, and antivirus evasion as well as identify sensitive data with minimal chances of detection.
Bootcamp Completion Certificate
Attendees will also get a course completion certificate after completing Learning Objectives covered during the course.

Prerequisites
1. A good understanding of Active Directory security.
2. The ability to use command line tools.
Bootcamp Syllabus
The course is split in four modules across four weeks:
Module I:
Introduction to Active Directory, attack methodology and tradecraft
Domain Enumeration (Attacks and Defense)
Enumerating information that would be useful in attacks with leaving minimal footprint on the endpoints
Understand and practice what properties and information to look for when preparing attack paths to avoid detection
Enumerate trust relationships within and across forests to map cross trust attack paths
Learn and practice escalating to local administrator privileges in the domain by abusing OU Delegation, Restricted Groups, LAPS, Nested group membership and hunting for privileges using remote access protocols
Credential Replay Attacks
Module II:
Abusing on-prem MS Exchange for privilege escalation and extracting emails and sensitive information from mailboxes
Evading application whitelisting (WDAC)
Domain Privilege Escalation by abusing Unconstrained Delegation: understand how unconstrained delegation is useful in compromising multiple high privilege servers and users in AD
Abusing Constrained Delegation for Domain Privilege Escalation by impersonating high privilege accounts
Using ACL permissions to abuse Resource-based Constrained Delegation
Domain Persistence Techniques
Module III:
Advanced Cross Domain attacks. Learn and practice attacks that allow escalation from Domain Admins to Enterprise Admins by abusing MS Products and delegation issues
Lateral movement from on-prem to Azure AD by attacking Hybrid Identity infrastructure
Advanced Cross Forest attacks. Execute attacks like abuse of Kerberoast, SID Filtering misconfigurations etc. across forest trusts forests and understand the nuances of such attacks
Module IV:
Abusing SQL Server for cross forest attacks
More on advanced Cross Forest attacks like abuse of Foreign Security Principals, ACLs etc.
Abusing PAM trust and shadow security principals to execute attacks against a managed forests
Detections and Defenses (Red Forest, JEA, PAW, LAPS, Selective Auth, Deception, App Whitelisting, ATA, Tiered Administration)
Bypassing defenses like Advanced Threat Analytics, Protected Users Group, WDAC etc.
