This Security Assessment will examine for SQL Server instance discovery, inadequate configuration auditing, and privilege escalation at scale. Penetration testers and red teams are the primary targets of this operation. However, manual assessment supports a number of methods that administrators may utilise to inventory the SQL Servers in their ADS domain

Additionally, a company can use this approach to define the risk factor and ensure compliance with information security policies. They can also use it to assess their level of reaction to any cyber- based threats. APTs primarily use Privilege Escalation after gaining a foothold to complete their objectives by using administrative or root accounts.
