Windows DnsAdmins New Member Added
This analytic detects the addition of a new member to the DnsAdmins group in Active Directory by leveraging Windows Security Event ID 4732. Monitoring this activity is crucial because members of the DnsAdmins group can manage the DNS service, often running on Domain Controllers, and potentially execute malicious code with SYSTEM privileges. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow an attacker to escalate privileges and gain control over critical domain services, posing a significant security risk.
