如何保护 Active Directory 抵御勒索软件攻击
勒索软件对各种类型企业的攻击无所不用其极，而 Active Directory 仍是最常见的攻击目标。通过修复这些关键的 AD 和群组策略错误配置可以阻止特权提升。
勒索软件现已成为全球各类企业的一个头疼问题。勒索软件现在多种多样。攻击者几乎会穷尽各种手段进入企业，将窃取的数据张贴在互联网上，迫使受害者支付赎金。在大多数情况下（请参见 SolarWinds 和 XingLocker），Active Directory (AD) 就是他们的攻击目标之一，因为攻击者可以在得到域特权账号后会扩散勒索范围。当然，企业也可以采用一些方法帮助保障 Active Directory 的安全，防止勒索软件得手。
Active Directory 的各个部分可以得到安全保护，这会增加企业的整体安全性，同时降低了风险。具体而言，下列有关 AD 的配置需要被修复：
- 需要修复用户属性的错误配置
- 需要修复群组的错误配置
- 需要清除特权群组
- 需要有正确的 AD 流程配置（例如 SDProp）
- 需要保障服务主体名称 (SPN) 的安全（如图1 所示）
- 信任关系正确且得到安全保护
- 需要清理用户的 SidHistory 属性

此外，保护 AD 本身和群组策略可确保攻击者无法利用错误配置和特权提升可以达到的部分。下面说明如何做：
- 需要验证和保护 AD 信任安全（如图 2 所示）
- 需要清除 AD 代理
- 需要清除群组策略代理
- 需要保护群组策略结构组件的安全
- 需要启用群组策略对象部署的安全设置
图 2. 合并与并购案可能会让信任关系变得无人管理；此外，必需信任关系也必须受到保护。
最后，攻击者希望获取特权。在获得特权后，他们想建立攻击路径。因此，能够检测这些类型的 AD 攻击就变得很重要。下面是 AD 管理员和安全专业人员要阻断攻击路径时能够采取的操作：
- 确保特权群组成员受到监控
- 检测 DCShadow 和 DCSync 攻击
- 黄金票据攻击（如图 3 所示）
- 检测横向移动攻击
- 检测危险的 SIDHistory 和 PrimaryGroupID 设置
