Think like an attacker. Defend like a professional.
Modern Windows environments remain a prime target for attackers — and too often, misconfigurations rather than zero-days are the real entry point. This hands-on workshop immerses participants in the mindset, techniques, and tooling used by today’s attackers, while continuously bridging the gap between offense and defense.
Designed for pentesters and system security administrators, the course walks through the full attack chain in a realistic Active Directory environment, from initial network access to full domain compromise, and systematically introduces practical, actionable hardening strategies to mitigate each attack vector.
Rather than simply listing vulnerabilities, the workshop emphasizes decision-making: how to prioritize fixes, assess operational impact, and strengthen Windows environments without breaking production systems.
Hands-on approach
This is a highly practical workshop. Each concept is demonstrated through real-world attack scenarios and immediately applied through guided labs. Participants will actively perform attacks, analyze their impact, and implement defensive measures while gaining skills they can transfer directly to their daily work.
