Detecting Kerberos Attacks And Other Active Directory Maladies With Deception
Zscaler, Friday, September 12th, 2025
We on the Deception team here at Zscaler love talking about Active Directory. Why? Because most of us are career red teamers who used to take immense pleasure in getting domain admin in their past lives.
Which is why we understand just how messed up Active Directory (AD) is and that a successful attack against AD almost always puts organizations in 'game over' territory. And while it might be an acceptable pastime for our team to casually discuss AD, security teams rarely have the time for such pondering - until a big event happens that makes everyone talk about AD.
