While this chapter focuses on exploiting the trust of the Active Directory role and services within a Windows environment, there are various types of attacks that exploit the security vulnerabilities found within the protocols of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite. When we think of TCP/IP, it's often referring to network-related technologies and devices. However, the protocols that exist within TCP/IP can be found within the operating system and the applications that are running on a host device. As an aspiring penetration tester, it's important to discover as many possible techniques and develop strategies to compromise your target.

In this section, you will learn how to discover and exploit security weaknesses found within the underlying network protocols of TCP/IP. These are used within an Active Directory domain to connect clients such as Windows 10 Enterprise systems to a domain controller that...
