What this card says
What it is
The purple team mindset for Active Directory: attack like Red, then fix like Blue.
The loop
Enumerate like an attacker → fix the weakness like a defender → enumerate again until the attack fails.
Why it matters for security
Say it clearly in interviews: “I test AD only in my own isolated lab. For Kerberoasting I explain SPNs and the gMSA fix. I use BloodHound to find and remove risky paths.”

| Documents screenshots of tickets/hashes | Documents Event IDs + GPO evidence that attacks now fail |
