# Detecting Kerberoasting Attacks ## When to Use - When proactively hunting for indicators of detecting kerberoasting attacks in the environment - After threat intelligence indicates active campaigns using these techniques - During incident response to scope compromise related to these techniques - When EDR or SIEM alerts trigger on related indicators - During periodic security assessments and purple team exercises ## Prerequisites - EDR platform with process and network telemetry (CrowdStrike, MDE, SentinelOne) - SIEM with relevant log data ingested (Splunk, Elastic, Sentinel) - Sysmon deployed with comprehensive configuration - Windows Security Event Log forwarding enabled - Threat intelligence feeds for IOC correlation ## Workflow 1. **Formulate Hypothesis**: Define a testable hypothesis based on threat intelligence or ATT&CK gap analysis. 2. **Identify Data Sources**: Determine which logs and telemetry are needed to validate or refute the hypothesis. 3. **Execute Queries**: Run detection queries against SIEM and EDR platforms to collect relevant events. 4. **Analyze Results**: Examine query results for anomalies, correlating across multiple data sources. 5. **Validate Findings**: Distinguish true positives from false positives through contextual analysis. 6. **Correlate Activity**: Link findings to broader attack chains and threat actor TTPs. 7. **Document and Report**: Record findings, update detection rules, and recommend response actions. ## Key Concepts | Conc...
