BloodHound, developed by SpecterOps, is a graph-based map of Active Directory (AD) relationships used by external pentesters and internal users to discover potential lateral movement attack paths. Active Directory is a highly prized target for attackers due to its ubiquity and complexity. BloodHound helps find AD misconfigurations that could be exploited by attackers. SpecterOps has announced version 5.0 of BloodHound, which will be available from August 8, 2023.
