Description

Credential Access is a technique used in cyber security red teaming to obtain sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and other authentication credentials. This technique may involve exploiting vulnerabilities in the target system, intercepting and decoding network traffic, or using social engineering tactics to trick individuals into revealing their credentials. In a red teaming context, the goal of Credential Access is to test the security of the target's authentication and authorization controls, and to simulate the actions of a real-world attacker seeking to gain access to sensitive information. The success of Credential Access in red teaming provides valuable information to the organization about the effectiveness of their security controls and highlights areas for improvement, helping to increase the overall security posture of the system.
