Active Directory & Domain Penetration Testing
Assess your Windows domain infrastructure security
What this engagement covers
The service
Active Directory is the backbone of most enterprise networks and a prime target for attackers. Our AD penetration testing simulates real-world attacks to identify paths to domain compromise, privilege escalation opportunities, and lateral movement vectors.
What we test
We assess your entire Active Directory infrastructure including domain controllers, trust relationships, group policies, privileged accounts, authentication protocols (Kerberos, NTLM), delegation configurations, and Azure AD/Entra ID integration. Our testing identifies misconfigurations that could lead to full domain compromise.
How we run it
Starting from an unprivileged user account or network foothold, we attempt to escalate privileges and gain domain admin access using real attacker TTPs. We map privilege escalation paths, identify kerberoasting opportunities, test for delegation abuse, and analyze GPO misconfigurations using tools like BloodHound.

What you receive
Findings land in your tracker as you go, not only in a PDF at the end. Retest is in scope, not a change order.
- Complete attack path visualization with BloodHound
- Privilege escalation vulnerability report
- Kerberos security assessment
- Trust relationship security analysis
- Privileged account inventory and risk assessment
- GPO security configuration review
- Azure AD/Entra ID security findings
- Hardening recommendations and remediation roadmap
What we usually find
The issues this engagement surfaces most often. Yours will differ, but this is the shape of it.
Who this is for
Findings are mapped to NIST 800-53, CIS Benchmarks, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, so the report drops into an audit package rather than needing to be translated first. If you need the readiness work behind one of those, that is a separate engagement.
