## What it is
A curated cheat sheet of common enumeration and attack techniques for Windows Active Directory environments. It serves as a quick reference for penetration testers covering tools like PowerView, BloodHound, and Mimikatz, plus attacks like Kerberoasting and delegation abuse.

## Use cases
- enumerate active directory domain during pentest
- learn kerberoasting and asreproast attacks
- find active directory privilege escalation techniques
- reference commands for bloodhound enumeration
- study lateral movement techniques in windows domains
- prepare for offensive security certifications

## When to choose
- you need a quick reference of AD attack commands during an engagement
- you are learning Active Directory exploitation techniques
- you want a curated list of tools for domain enumeration and privilege escalation

## When to avoid
- you need defensive hardening guidance rather than offensive techniques
- you want an executable tool rather than documentation
- you need step-by-step tutorials for beginners with no AD background
