Just to save your time: in this video, you can see how to brute-force a Windows RDP service using a script called crowbar and how to setup up security measures in Windows.
Amazing. Thank you for your great content! Seeing a lot of RDP pops in my SOC. From blue perspective, seeing this video is like being blind then suddenly being able to see. A lot of the time it's just like "Yeah, there is malicious activity, but who TF knows where it came from." Amazing to be able to see from the other side. For the RDP session, any activity would be visible from the employee/victim's perspective, right? It wouldn't create a hidden session? So the attacker would have to log on at a time when the employee was not likely to be on the desktop?
Dear Loi, I really admire your work & you the way you present , makes it much more interesting. :) I want to ask a very basic question here related to Hardware, what would be the minimum configuration needed to run these kind of Brute force attack. I am testing Crowbar & using my own custom made word list in my Lab Environment.
OMG, i i finished the video and just found the solution i think, my windows is in Active Directory Domain join and i configured the exactly policy he just did through Group Policy Managent tool in AD Windows Server 2019, btw this is what i use fro my homelab. i guess i will give different dns or i will change the policy to 0 attempt, thanks lot buddy!
I am new here, I am getting passion for Cyber Security, and also becoming and ethical hacker. Am enjoy your videos. Do you have like a coaching session or class?
in azure use security centre and 'just-in-time', and allow connectivity from only company vpn public router ip or company vpn dhcp subnet for given server.
Using those policies will automatically block your Server, as bot-nets are attacking the RDP port constantly. So make an IP Scope in your Firewall will be the solution, instead of using a windows server policy.
That depends on the network topology if all the machines are behind NAT then it has to be on same network however if it's for example a server that is port forwarded through the firewall and NAT then it can be attacked from the internet which is why you shouldn't port forward RDP into the internet but make a VPN service using certificate instead and RDP over VPN connection made into the network

1:36 I f the pc trying to be hacked via rdp is in domain and and you check Allow connections from ........ Network Level Authentication he wonyt be able because he is not a member of the domain . Even if he tries to join he will need an admin account to do so. Most measurements better the changes to bypass you the net bots trying to find holes in the system
I think you should explain how to scan systems for services like RDP in an ip range. Your video skips over important parts of obtaining the needed info to launch attacks against vulnerable systems. Brute force attacks do not work on systems that do not use dictionary words as passwords. Obviously 3rd party lists of commonly used or stolen passwords work in some cases but no competent admin is using dictionary words or commonly used passwords to secure their devices on a network.
The edition of the Windows that my laptop is using (home edition), doesn’t have the Remote Desktop, but only has the Remote Assistance in the Advance System Settings, so does it mean that the Windows version make my laptop not eligible for remote desktop connection? And if so, is it still possible for hackers to remotely control and access my laptop?
Beside this I also change the default port and add inbound rules to allows only trusted IP to pass-thru; a little pain if you're a traveler but that's what vpn is for. May be an open 2FA is the next option for sure.
Excellent vid and channel, thx for sharing. I would like to pick your brains for a question bugging me for some time: since win 10 was launched I have come across, while trying to disable the remote access in several computers, a warning that the OS I was using did not have that option available any more. Was that a sign of a probable hacking in progress, or is it a fact that you are aware of? It felt odd back then...
@@BigReddthehebrew did you bother doing the math? 1% of 8 billion is roughly 50 million. Let that marinate for a second. Every company on the planet doesn't use computers.

My question is why the hell would you have a terminal server directly facing the internet anyway. If you do expect to get hammered by the wanna be hacker Skiddie patrol. We would setup honey pots that face the web and watch people hitting them in real-time with Security Onion. This happens on a daily basis for sure
Thank u sir for your video and information. Actually i have a case. My pc had a virus and once it was running qemu which i believe is used to gain access to computer from remote desktop plzz help me sir and tell me what should i do plzz sir im afraid those hackers might get my imp data😭.
I guess it is better not to allow remote desktop instead of changing account lockup modification. Am I wrong? And why allow 2 times? Is it something wrong if I lock up after 1st attempt?
so ... if the password its not like so easy ? also if the target pc has the usernames renamed, like i always do after installing it, algo if the target user its normal user, u cant do much, such as installing a keylogger or a malware, things like that, those things that a not good hacker would do.
hi great video, but local security policy app is not available on windows 10 HOME editions, as well as using secpol.msc or gpedit.msc, im not sure but other youtube videos or forums on how to solve this issue requires you to have to download third party apps or tools? i dont think this is safe or they could be trusted, is there a way to do this on windows 10 home edition without download any tools?
Sir the attack which you have shown in video is on local network base attack but if we want to perform attack over the network then what is command for that And if any network administration has change default port of rdp then how to find port of rdp please reply
Hi Loi. I have enabled or allowed remote access to my target machine. In fact, i was able to successfully ping the IP Address but after running the command to start i'm still getting "Trying (the ip address:3389). Any suggestions>

Thanks for another great video Loi. After this video, I noticed that my laptop has been hacked several times before (or more than that) without knowing. I tried your instruction with my virtual window 10 pro. I successfully access the log on screen, but it shows "to sign in remotely, you need the right to sign through remote desktop services" Any solutions to solve this problem from my kali machine?
While it’s a good video - I get the distinct feeling you pre populated the password file with your own info to simplify this video or you purposefully set your password to an easy / non secured password for the sake of time.
@Asu It means to use a firewall at the edge of your network and open only ports that are necessary. E.g. if you only run a web server you should only open TCP ports 80 and 443 from the outside. If you run a mail server you should only open TCP ports 25, 465 and 587 from the outside. If you run both servers you should only open those five ports and nothing else from the outside etc. Of course these ports may be different depending on your configuration and services you are providing. If you need remote management access like Remote Desktop or SSH you should use VPN.
@Asu I don't know. If netstat shows it, it means your PC is or was connected to this AWS service. Many programs or your OS itself can connect to this service in the background. Make sure your OS, antivirus and other software is up-to-date. Uninstall unnecessary programs and run antivirus scan.

Not much of hacking with that scenario ahah
Educational purposes, I would never commit a crime and either would you 🙃
Just for people who are stuck finding the local security policy. THIS IS NOT AVAILABLE ON WINDOWS HOME (only pro, enterprise and a couple more)
On the other hand by limiting the attempts of access to a certain number leads to denial access exploits if I am not mistaken.
So does it mean the remote connection has to be enabled before this can be successful?
Thanks for showing this security policy, I wasn't aware of it!

Example is with NLA disabled but crowbar says it supports NLA. If you're curious.

Does it require that the target windows computer has to be on the same network as the attacker ?
