BloodHound Community Edition

Overview #

BloodHound draws an Active Directory environment as a graph of users, groups, computers and the permissions between them. It then searches the graph for attack paths, such as a chain of permissions that leads from a low-privilege account to a domain admin.

SharpHound is the collector. It runs on a Windows machine in the domain, gathers the data BloodHound needs, and saves it as files to import.

Note: the original BloodHound repository (BloodHound Legacy, version 4) is deprecated. Use the BloodHound Community Edition linked above.

Only run these tools in an Active Directory environment you are authorised to assess.
