Mastering Active Directory Security MADS Vol 2 – Protocols and Permissions

The Mastering Active Directory Security (MADS) Path will contain numerous practical, hands-on courses by expert and industry veteran, Slavi Parpulev (eLS, HTB, et al). In MADS Vol 2, he goes beyond the foundational topics taught in MADS Vol 1 and provides a deeper dive into protocols, permissions and associated attacks. A Kali Attack Machine is provided and a full, open AD environment for you to play along AND do some exploring of your own.

Since practically the entire Fortune 1000 uses Active Directory, knowing it and what attacks apply in these corporate enterprises is a must for any budding penetration tester. This first of many volumes will get your feet wet. Future volumes will keep getting more complex and difficult. But in the end, your journey into Slavi’s MADS world won’t end until, as he says himself, “We hack EVERYTHING!!!! ๐Ÿ˜ˆ”
