Mimikatz is a powerful open-source tool for Windows security research and penetration testing. It allows users to extract plaintexts passwords, hash, PIN code, and kerberos tickets from memory.
Mimikatz is a well-known security tool primarily used for interacting with Windows security mechanisms, most notably extracting clear-text passwords, hashes, and other credentials from memory.
Mimikatz addresses the challenge of accessing in-memory sensitive security information on Windows systems for security testing, research, and forensic analysis purposes.
Extracts credentials (passwords, hashes, tickets) from memory.
Provides post-exploitation capabilities on Windows systems.
Includes modules for Kerberos, CryptoAPI, LSA secrets, etc.
Allows interaction with Windows security components like LSASS.
Mimikatz has various use cases within the cybersecurity domain, predominantly for authorized security activities:
Testers use Mimikatz on target systems during penetration tests to extract credentials for privilege escalation or lateral movement.
Allows simulating real-world attack techniques and identifying weaknesses in credential management.
Security researchers analyze Mimikatz's code and behavior to understand Windows security protocols and develop detection/mitigation strategies.
Deepens understanding of Windows security internals and aids in developing defenses.
Incident responders may use Mimikatz (or its principles) during forensic analysis to understand what credentials might have been compromised on an affected system.
Helps in post-breach analysis to determine the extent of credential compromise.
