# Altered Security

Attacking Active Directory with Linux (LinuxAD) is a training environment and playground. Students get access to a dedicated lab setup (not shared with other students).

The lab contains a Linux-based machine to execute attacks and a target AD setup. The target AD is a fully patched AD environment with all Server 2019 machines.
