Hey everyone! Just looking for some insight on the krbtgt account in Kerberos. I've received a ticket from the security team suggesting that we should reset its password every 180 days, but I'm a bit concerned about potential disruptions, especially since we operate a manufacturing facility 24/7. I also came across mentions of the 'golden ticket' attack, but I'm not entirely clear on what it entails. From what I understand, if someone compromises a domain controller, they might be able to grab the NTLM hash for this account and misuse it to respond to Kerberos requests. How do you handle this in your environments, and what strategies do you recommend? This is my first time dealing with this, so I'd appreciate your thoughts!

Yeah, definitely reset the krbtgt password! One common approach is to do it every 180 days. Just make sure to use the Microsoft script and follow the guidelines strictly. This helps mitigate the risks associated with golden ticket attacks. You really don’t want unauthorized access to your network, so keeping up with this is key!
