Mimikatz PassTheTicket CommandLine Parameters

splApache-2.0from splunk/security_content

The following analytic detects the use of Mimikatz command line parameters associated with pass-the-ticket attacks. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on specific command-line patterns related to Kerberos ticket manipulation. This activity is significant because pass-the-ticket attacks allow adversaries to move laterally within an environment using stolen Kerberos tickets, bypassing normal access controls. If confirmed malicious, this could enable attackers to escalate privileges, access sensitive information, and maintain persistence within the network.
