Disclaimer: I was NOT paid for this interview. I wanted to make this video because it affects many of you watching and is a major topic on the OSCP exam. However, OffSec did give me access to Learn One for one year so I could see the course content. This has helped me prepare for the interview. Hopefully I'll be able to make more content covering what is in the PEN 200 course in future :)

[@GeorgeMulak]

WOW, very nicely done

[@antonioesposito3662]

[@PhayulDigest]

Thanks David & Remi, this is probably the best demo on AD hacking, I will watch this repeatedly until I get good grasp of AD hacking.

[@KryptoWooks]

u always have good people as guests your good too Bombal enjoy seeing and learning from good people the best Knowledge is free God bless😇

[@chillydill4703]

What a great video! Super interesting!

[@bulent1062]

it was awesome. thanks for the demonstration. don't forget resetting krbgt password 2 times :)

[@collinsbaffour7397]

Excellent and interesting demo as always i would like to watch him do the enumeration as he documented

[@haniswaleh4705]

Eye opening video... Didn't know there is so many open holes in the active directory

[@norvin1107]

Indeed a great video David! I've learned so much in this video and it would such be a greater help if Remy can also demonstrate on how to prevent this kind of attacks and/or persistent attacks from happening again. Like what Remy said that it is not advisable to go and change the password of your krbtgt immediately.. It would really be of great help teaching sysadmins on how to protect they're network environment. I really appreciate this video because a lot of knowledge has been demonstrated by Remy. Kudos to your videos David! Looking forward for a lot more educational and exciting videos regarding offensive security and hopefully for defensive security also. Thank you and God bless!

[@Yuenix]

i love these type of contents , I remember learning and understanding AD and also Group Policy etc. But yes Thank you David, also David you need to do a video and live stream with Ryan Montgomery, idk if youve seen that Ryan Shawn interviewing Ryan Montgomery, but it be awesome if you guys can show some awesome hack techniques or something. but thank you David as always 😁

Hi David. I find your videos very informational, and this one is so far "the best." Thanks for interviewing one of my country men. This presentation scares me :( Am for sure going to make a call to Remi

[@user-mv6my2oz1k]

Great video.

[@ahmedahmedx9600]

Thank you Vardhan!

[@paulscales9704]

Amazing, I have been sysadmin for a long time, this is scary stuff, I did notice antivirus was not enabled and would also need to be bypassed before mimikatz could be run, but as in all things that's a whole other video that probably should not see the light of day 😂

[@samsorts]

Thank you for creating and sharing this great vid. I would like to practice this lab. VMs are available to download?

[@radijaye7435]

Very good video. Is it possible to have the part of discovery in other video

[@joefawcett2191]

Brilliant video, and brilliant explanations all round. Just out of curiosity if a golden ticket file did fall into the wrong hands, would it be traceable to whoever created it?

[@447necro8]

bros beard has opacity set to 0.75 - great content very knowledgable.

[@PrinceJohn84]

Super, super video! Adoption of good credential isolation techniques, enabling LSA protection and use of the built in Protected Users group in AD would all be good first steps towards thwarting many of these types of privilege escalation attacks. Above all, don't let Jeff anywhere near your directory infrastructure 🤣🤣🤣
