Various LSASS Credentials Dumping Methods Detected by EDR

AhnLab ASEC describes credential-theft techniques in Windows Active Directory environments centered on dumping LSASS memory to obtain NT hashes for pass-the-hash and lateral movement, highlighting the use of both Mimikatz and legitimate tools (ProcDump, Process Explorer, Task Manager, comsvcs.dll) to evade traditional detections. The report emphasizes behavior-based detection and response by AhnLab EDR to surface, analyze, and mitigate these credential access attempts.
