About this course

Active Directory runs most corporate networks, which makes understanding its weaknesses essential for anyone defending one. In this course you set up your own test domain or a ready-made vulnerable lab, then walk the same path an intruder would. You see why an ordinary account can map the whole directory, how service tickets and pre-authentication settings leak crackable material, and how hashes and tickets let an attacker move between machines without a password. You study delegation and permission abuse, domain-wide takeover techniques like DCSync and forged tickets, and durable persistence. Crucially, each topic is paired with what defenders can monitor and the structural fixes that close the gap, ending with how to report findings clearly. All work stays inside a lab you build and own.

Questions about this course

Is this a subscription?

No. You pay $9.99 once for this course. There is no subscription and nothing renews automatically. Prices are in US dollars; taxes may be added where required.

What exactly do I get?

All lessons and labs of this course, the final exam and the certificate, including later updates to the course, for as long as Tutorvo offers it. Access is personal and tied to your account.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. If you are not satisfied, email hello@tutorvo.com within 14 days of buying and we refund the course in full via Stripe. The guarantee does not apply once a certificate for the course has been issued to you, or where there are signs of abuse.

When can I start?

Right after payment. Access starts immediately at your request; for consumers in the EU/EEA the statutory right of withdrawal therefore ends once access has begun, while our 14-day money-back guarantee applies regardless.

Do I need Excel or other software?

No. The labs run in a spreadsheet inside your browser on a laptop, tablet or phone. Function names and syntax follow Excel.

Is the certificate an official qualification?

No. It confirms that you completed all lessons of the course and passed its final exam. It is not an official, state-recognised or professional qualification. The name is taken from your profile when the certificate is issued.
