Understanding Active Directory Security Risks

Active Directory (AD) is a critical component of an organization's infrastructure, managing user accounts, computers, and group policies. However, it's often misconfigured, leading to numerous vulnerabilities that can be exploited by threat actors. The discussion emphasizes the importance of approaching Active Directory security risks from a hacker's perspective to illustrate how these vulnerabilities can be leveraged. The aim is to equip system administrators with the knowledge to identify and mitigate these risks in their environments.
