#BoxFriday25- Authority (Medium)

Join us this 25th of April for another exciting Hack The Box Kenya Meetup, where we'll be diving deep into a real-world Active Directory exploitation scenario by tackling the Windows machine "Authority".
This box is a medium-difficulty challenge. Whether you're sharpening your red teaming skills or just getting familiar with AD environments, this session is for you!
💡 What You'll Learn:
-Enumerating domain controllers and understanding their role in AD infrastructure
-Realistic AD enumeration techniques
-Cracking Ansible vaults to retrieve sensitive credentials
-Identifying and exploiting misconfigurations in Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS)
-Conducting a Pass-the-Cert attack to escalate privileges
-Leveraging default AD permissions (like the ability for any domain user to join machines to the domain!) to our advantage
We’ll be walking through how a few seemingly small misconfigurations—like password reuse or exposed credentials on network shares—can spiral into complete domain compromise. 🔥
