## What it is
SafetyKatz is a C# tool that combines a modified Mimikatz with a .NET PE loader to dump LSASS memory and extract credentials. It minidumps LSASS to disk, runs sekurlsa::logonpasswords and sekurlsa::ekeys against the dump, then deletes the file.

## Use cases
- dump lsass credentials from windows
- extract plaintext passwords and kerberos keys from memory
- run mimikatz logonpasswords in-memory without dropping mimikatz on disk
- red team credential harvesting on windows hosts
- retrieve cleartext and encrypted keys from lsass minidump

## When to choose
- you need a compact, self-contained credential-dumping binary for authorized penetration tests
- you want mimikatz sekurlsa functionality loaded reflectively via .NET

## When to avoid
- you need full mimikatz functionality, as features were stripped for size
- you cannot compile it yourself, since no binaries are released
- you need a maintained tool - the last release was in 2019

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: security, penetration-testing, cli
- domain: security, penetration-testing, windows
- platform: windows, dotnet, cli
- tags: credential-dumping, mimikatz, lsass-dump, red-team, post-exploitation, pe-loader
