Locksmith is a PowerShell module and script that audits Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) for common misconfigurations. It can identify issues, report them to the console or CSV, and optionally apply fixes automatically.

Use cases

  • audit AD CS for security misconfigurations
  • find and fix Active Directory Certificate Services vulnerabilities
  • generate a CSV report of ADCS issues and remediation steps
  • automatically remediate common ADCS misconfigurations
  • run targeted ADCS security scans on a domain-joined machine

When to choose

  • you administer Active Directory and need to harden AD CS
  • you want a quick, scriptable audit of certificate service misconfigurations
  • you prefer a PowerShell-native tool installable from the PowerShell Gallery

When to avoid

  • you are not on a domain-joined Windows system
  • you need general PKI management beyond AD CS misconfiguration auditing
  • you cannot run PowerShell or lack the ActiveDirectory module
