7MS #351: Turn Windows Logging up to 11

Today's episode is brought to you by NoteCast. Try it free for 60 days (no credit card required) and enter code 7MS when completing your signup.

In today's episode, I talk about how the level of Windows server/client logging out of the box is...not really awesome. I then look at how we can create a GPO that turns logging "up to 11" using some free tools and cheat sheets.

If you want to simulate this in your own lab by building out an Active Directory environment, check out part 1 of a Webinar series we've been working on called DIY $500 Pentest Lab, which helps you select hardware/software components you need to build a lab. Then coming up soon is part 2 where we'll build out a Windows 2012 server, promote it to a DC, join a couple clients to it, and prepare to start hacking!

Once your AD and clients are setup, you can start slurping up their logs for free using a Papertrailapp account (not a sponsor). I went ahead and paid for a $7/mo plan so I could get 1GB of storage and a little longer log retention.

Then, I used LOG-MD to audit a Windows workstation and get some great recommendations on what registry settings and security policy tweaks to make. Finally, I started turning this into a GPO so I could begin pushing out these settings en masse. My living/breathing document to capture all this information is in a new gist that I plopped here.

7MS #604: A Two Tool Teaser

7MS #604: A Two Tool Teaser

Today we tease two upcoming tool releases (shooting for Q1, 2024): TCMLobbyBBQ - a Python script for PC players of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre game to help players get out of lobbies and into live games ASAP! The script uses PyAutoGUI to take screenshots of what part of the game you're in, then make appropriate key presses and mouse clicks to get into lobby queues, then alert you when the game actually starts! EvilFortiAuthenticator - this tool will allow you to steal administrator API tokens from FortiAuthenticator which can lead to full compromise of the physical device. Happy new year!

7MS #603: Monitoring Your Tailscale Network with Uptime Kuma

Today I look at potentially replacing Splashtop and UptimeRobot (check out our episode about it here) with Tailscale and Uptime Kuma. The missing link (which I'd love some help with) is answering this security question: how can I setup Tailscale so that my 7MinSec testing box can connect to all these NUCs spread around the globe, but those NUCs cannot connect to each other (in case one is compromised)? Got some ideas? Let me know please!

7MS #601: Breaking Up With Active Directory

Today our pal Nate Schmitt (you may remember him from his excellent Dealing with Rejection: A DMARC Discussion Webinar) joins us to talk about breaking up with Active Directory. He covers: Why would you want to consider removing AD from your environment? What are common items to plan for? What steps should you take to efficiently plan a migration? What common challenges or considerations will you face?

7MS #600: First Impressions of Using AI on Penetration Tests

7MS #600: First Impressions of Using AI on Penetration Tests

Hey friends, today I share my experience working with ChatGPT, Ollama.ai, PentestGPT and privateGPT to help me pentest Active Directory, as well as a machine called Pilgrimage from HackTheBox. Will AI replace pentesters as we know them today? In my humble opinion: not quite yet. Check out today's episode to hear more, and please join me on Wednesday, December 6 for my Webinar on this topic with Netwrix called Hack the Hackers: Exploring ChatGPT and PentestGPT in Penetration Testing!
