You’ll begin by deploying your lab, where every technique can be replicated.

The chapters help you master every step of the attack kill chain and put new knowledge into practice.

You’ll discover how to evade defense of common built-in security mechanisms, such as AMSI, AppLocker, and Sysmon; perform reconnaissance and discovery activities in the domain environment by using common protocols and tools; and harvest domain-wide credentials.

You’ll also learn how to move laterally by blending into the environment’s traffic to stay under radar, escalate privileges inside the domain and across the forest, and achieve persistence at the domain level and on the domain controller.

Every chapter discusses OpSec considerations for each technique, and you’ll apply this kill chain to perform the security assessment of other Microsoft products and services, such as Exchange, SQL Server, and SCCM. By the end of this book, you'll be able to perform a full-fledged security assessment of the Microsoft environment, detect malicious activity in your network, and guide IT engineers on remediation steps to improve the security posture of the company.What you will learnUnderstand and adopt the Microsoft infrastructure kill chain methodologyAttack Windows services, such as Active Directory, Exchange, WSUS, SCCM, AD CS, and SQL ServerDisappear from the defender's eyesight by tampering with defensive capabilitiesUpskill yourself in offensive OpSec to stay under the radarFind out how to detect adversary activities in your Windows environmentGet to grips with the steps needed to remediate misconfigurationsPrepare yourself for real-life scenarios by getting hands-on experience with exercisesWho this book is forThis book is for pentesters and red teamers, security and IT engineers, as well as blue teamers and incident responders interested in Windows infrastructure security.
