HTB Meetup Vancouver #5 - AD-venture

WHAT CAN I EXPECT? 🤖
Want to hack active directory, but don't want the headache of building a vulnerable home lab first? We've got you covered.

Join us for our next meetup, where we'll break down the fundamentals of AD: domains, trusts, permissions, and the misconfigurations that turn a low-privileged user into a Domain Admin. After the talk, we'll put it all into practice. We'll work through an AD box as a group.

ARE YOU A BEGINNER? 👋
We all begin somewhere, and you don’t have to do it alone. Come along, meet a welcoming community, learn by doing, and start your journey with people who are happy to help and share what they know.

WHAT DO I NEED? 💾
A computer, an internet connection, and some electricity. You will also need a virtual machine, but don’t worry, the setup steps and links are just below. Please create a Hack The Box account before the session, and you’ll be ready to go.

VIRTUAL MACHINE SETUP 💻
We recommend setting up your virtual machine before the meetup so we can spend more time working on the dedicated machines together. If possible, please follow the instruction video below in advance. We are happy to help with setup on the day, but we ask that you try to download the required software and operating system beforehand.
