Domain Password Audit Tool (DPAT)

  • Domain Password Audit Tool (DPAT) is a python script used to generate password use statistics from password hashes extracted from a domain controller and a password crack file.
  • The tool creates an HTML report with clickable links for analysis.
  • It requires parameters like the extracted hashes from the domain controller and the list of cracked passwords from tools like Hashcat.
  • Optional parameters include specifying group lists for users like 'Domain Admins' or 'Enterprise Admins'.
  • The tool extracts password hashes using ntdsutil and secretsdump.py from the domain controller.
  • To crack passwords, the tool supports hash formats from Hashcat or John the Ripper.
  • DPAT has the ability to finish cracking LM hashes where the NT hash was not cracked.
  • It provides various options like writing SQLite database info to disk and sanitizing the report by redacting sensitive information.
