How much splunk costs?
Splunk License Keygen Download
- It all depends on the volume that you're indexing daily i.e. how much log data you are sending to splunk to process/store.
- Splunk is free to download and use if your daily indexing volume is less than 500MB
- The enterprise license starts at $6,000 for a 500MB/day perpetual license or $2,000/year for a term license
- Its a tiered license . Bigger the license cheaper it is
- Once you license Splunk Enterprise there is no limit to the number of users, searches, alerts, correlations, reports, dashboards or automated remedial actions. It's all included—at no additional cost.
- Perpetual and Term LicensingThere are two options for licensing Splunk Enterprise:
- Perpetual license: this includes the full functionality of Splunk Enterprise and starts as low as $4,500 for 1 GB/day*, plus annual support fees
- Term license: this provides the option of paying a yearly fee instead of the one-time perpetual license fee. Term licenses start at $1,800 per year*, which includes annual support fees
- Splunk pricing 100gb will cost around $1500
- Splunk pricing 10gb will cost $2500
- Splunk pricing 1gb will cost $4500
- Splunk is still cheap as compared to its competitors when compared its features :)

Subcategory:Audit Kerberos Authentication Service
Event Description:
This event generates every time Key Distribution Center issues a Kerberos Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT).
This event generates only on domain controllers.
If TGT issue fails then you will see Failure event with Result Code field not equal to “0x0”.
This event doesn't generate for Result Codes: 0x10, 0x17 and 0x18. Event “4771: Kerberos pre-authentication failed.” generates instead.
Note For recommendations, see Security Monitoring Recommendations for this event.
Event XML:
Required Server Roles: Active Directory domain controller.
Minimum OS Version: Windows Server 2008.
Event Versions: 0.
Field Descriptions:
Account Information:
Account Name [Type = UnicodeString]: the name of account, for which (TGT) ticket was requested. Computer account name ends with $ character.
User account example: dadmin
Computer account example: WIN81$
Supplied Realm Name [Type = UnicodeString]: the name of the Kerberos Realm that Account Name belongs to. This can appear in a variety of formats, including the following:
Domain NETBIOS name example: CONTOSO
Lowercase full domain name: contoso.local
Uppercase full domain name: CONTOSO.LOCAL
Note A Kerberos Realm is a set of managed nodes that share the same Kerberos database. The Kerberos database resides on the Kerberos master computer system, which should be kept in a physically secure room. Active Directory domain is the example of Kerberos Realm in the Microsoft Windows Active Directory world.
User ID [Type = SID]: SID of account for which (TGT) ticket was requested. Event Viewer automatically tries to resolve SIDs and show the account name. If the SID cannot be resolved, you will see the source data in the event.
For example: CONTOSOdadmin or CONTOSOWIN81$.
- NULL SID – this value shows in 4768 Failure events.
Note A security identifier (SID) is a unique value of variable length used to identify a trustee (security principal). Each account has a unique SID that is issued by an authority, such as an Active Directory domain controller, and stored in a security database. Each time a user logs on, the system retrieves the SID for that user from the database and places it in the access token for that user. The system uses the SID in the access token to identify the user in all subsequent interactions with Windows security. When a SID has been used as the unique identifier for a user or group, it cannot ever be used again to identify another user or group. For more information about SIDs, see Security identifiers.

Service Information:
Service Name [Type = UnicodeString]: the name of the service in the Kerberos Realm to which TGT request was sent. Typically has value “krbtgt” for TGT requests, which means Ticket Granting Ticket issuing service.
- For Failure events Service Name typically has the following format: krbtgt/REALM_NAME. For example: krbtgt/CONTOSO.
Service ID [Type = SID]: SID of the service account in the Kerberos Realm to which TGT request was sent. Event Viewer automatically tries to resolve SIDs and show the account name. If the SID cannot be resolved, you will see the source data in the event.
Domain controllers have a specific service account (krbtgt) that is used by the Key Distribution Center (KDC) service to issue Kerberos tickets. It has a built-in, pre-defined SID: S-1-5-21-DOMAIN_IDENTIFIER-502.
- NULL SID – this value shows in 4768 Failure events.
Network Information:
Client Address [Type = UnicodeString]: IP address of the computer from which the TGT request was received. Formats vary, and include the following:
IPv6 or IPv4 address.
::ffff:IPv4_address.
::1 - localhost.
Client Port [Type = UnicodeString]: source port number of client network connection (TGT request connection).
- 0 for local (localhost) requests.
Additional information:
Ticket Options [Type = HexInt32]: this is a set of different ticket flags in hexadecimal format.
Example:
Ticket Options: 0x40810010
Binary view: 01000000100000010000000000010000
Using MSB 0 bit numbering we have bit 1, 8, 15 and 27 set = Forwardable, Renewable, Canonicalize, Renewable-ok.
Note In the table below “MSB 0” bit numbering is used, because RFC documents use this style. In “MSB 0” style bit numbering begins from left.
The most common values:
0x40810010 - Forwardable, Renewable, Canonicalize, Renewable-ok
0x40810000 - Forwardable, Renewable, Canonicalize
0x60810010 - Forwardable, Forwarded, Renewable, Canonicalize, Renewable-ok
| Bit | Flag Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Reserved | - |
| 1 | Forwardable | (TGT only). Tells the ticket-granting service that it can issue a new TGT—based on the presented TGT—with a different network address based on the presented TGT. |
| 2 | Forwarded | Indicates either that a TGT has been forwarded or that a ticket was issued from a forwarded TGT. |
| 3 | Proxiable | (TGT only). Tells the ticket-granting service that it can issue tickets with a network address that differs from the one in the TGT. |
| 4 | Proxy | Indicates that the network address in the ticket is different from the one in the TGT used to obtain the ticket. |
| 5 | Allow-postdate | Postdated tickets SHOULD NOT be supported in KILE (Microsoft Kerberos Protocol Extension). |
| 6 | Postdated | Postdated tickets SHOULD NOT be supported in KILE (Microsoft Kerberos Protocol Extension). |
| 7 | Invalid | This flag indicates that a ticket is invalid, and it must be validated by the KDC before use. Application servers must reject tickets which have this flag set. |
| 8 | Renewable | Used in combination with the End Time and Renew Till fields to cause tickets with long life spans to be renewed at the KDC periodically. |
| 9 | Initial | Indicates that a ticket was issued using the authentication service (AS) exchange and not issued based on a TGT. |
| 10 | Pre-authent | Indicates that the client was authenticated by the KDC before a ticket was issued. This flag usually indicates the presence of an authenticator in the ticket. It can also flag the presence of credentials taken from a smart card logon. |
| 11 | Opt-hardware-auth | This flag was originally intended to indicate that hardware-supported authentication was used during pre-authentication. This flag is no longer recommended in the Kerberos V5 protocol. KDCs MUST NOT issue a ticket with this flag set. KDCs SHOULD NOT preserve this flag if it is set by another KDC. |
| 12 | Transited-policy-checked | KILE MUST NOT check for transited domains on servers or a KDC. Application servers MUST ignore the TRANSITED-POLICY-CHECKED flag. |
| 13 | Ok-as-delegate | The KDC MUST set the OK-AS-DELEGATE flag if the service account is trusted for delegation. |
| 14 | Request-anonymous | KILE not use this flag. |
| 15 | Name-canonicalize | In order to request referrals the Kerberos client MUST explicitly request the 'canonicalize' KDC option for the AS-REQ or TGS-REQ. |
| 16-25 | Unused | - |
| 26 | Disable-transited-check | By default the KDC will check the transited field of a TGT against the policy of the local realm before it will issue derivative tickets based on the TGT. If this flag is set in the request, checking of the transited field is disabled. Tickets issued without the performance of this check will be noted by the reset (0) value of the TRANSITED-POLICY-CHECKED flag, indicating to the application server that the transited field must be checked locally. KDCs are encouraged but not required to honor the DISABLE-TRANSITED-CHECK option. Should not be in use, because Transited-policy-checked flag is not supported by KILE. |
| 27 | Renewable-ok | The RENEWABLE-OK option indicates that a renewable ticket will be acceptable if a ticket with the requested life cannot otherwise be provided, in which case a renewable ticket may be issued with a renew-till equal to the requested end time. The value of the renew-till field may still be limited by local limits, or limits selected by the individual principal or server. |
| 28 | Enc-tkt-in-skey | No information. |
| 29 | Unused | - |
| 30 | Renew | The RENEW option indicates that the present request is for a renewal. The ticket provided is encrypted in the secret key for the server on which it is valid. This option will only be honored if the ticket to be renewed has its RENEWABLE flag set and if the time in it’s renew-till field has not passed. The ticket to be renewed is passed in the padata field as part of the authentication header. |
| 31 | Validate | This option is used only by the ticket-granting service. The VALIDATE option indicates that the request is to validate a postdated ticket. Should not be in use, because postdated tickets are not supported by KILE. |

- Result Code [Type = HexInt32]: hexadecimal result code of TGT issue operation. The “Table 3. TGT/TGS issue error codes.” contains the list of the most common error codes for this event.
| Code | Code Name | Description | Possible causes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0x0 | KDC_ERR_NONE | No error | No errors were found. |
| 0x1 | KDC_ERR_NAME_EXP | Client's entry in KDC database has expired | No information. |
| 0x2 | KDC_ERR_SERVICE_EXP | Server's entry in KDC database has expired | No information. |
| 0x3 | KDC_ERR_BAD_PVNO | Requested Kerberos version number not supported | No information. |
| 0x4 | KDC_ERR_C_OLD_MAST_KVNO | Client's key encrypted in old master key | No information. |
| 0x5 | KDC_ERR_S_OLD_MAST_KVNO | Server's key encrypted in old master key | No information. |
| 0x6 | KDC_ERR_C_PRINCIPAL_UNKNOWN | Client not found in Kerberos database | The username doesn’t exist. |
| 0x7 | KDC_ERR_S_PRINCIPAL_UNKNOWN | Server not found in Kerberos database | This error can occur if the domain controller cannot find the server’s name in Active Directory. This error is similar to KDC_ERR_C_PRINCIPAL_UNKNOWN except that it occurs when the server name cannot be found. |
| 0x8 | KDC_ERR_PRINCIPAL_NOT_UNIQUE | Multiple principal entries in KDC database | This error occurs if duplicate principal names exist. Unique principal names are crucial for ensuring mutual authentication. Thus, duplicate principal names are strictly forbidden, even across multiple realms. Without unique principal names, the client has no way of ensuring that the server it is communicating with is the correct one. |
| 0x9 | KDC_ERR_NULL_KEY | The client or server has a null key (master key) | No master key was found for client or server. Usually it means that administrator should reset the password on the account. |
| 0xA | KDC_ERR_CANNOT_POSTDATE | Ticket (TGT) not eligible for postdating | This error can occur if a client requests postdating of a Kerberos ticket. Postdating is the act of requesting that a ticket’s start time be set into the future. It also can occur if there is a time difference between the client and the KDC. |
| 0xB | KDC_ERR_NEVER_VALID | Requested start time is later than end time | There is a time difference between the KDC and the client. |
| 0xC | KDC_ERR_POLICY | Requested start time is later than end time | This error is usually the result of logon restrictions in place on a user’s account. For example workstation restriction, smart card authentication requirement or logon time restriction. |
| 0xD | KDC_ERR_BADOPTION | KDC cannot accommodate requested option | Impending expiration of a TGT. The SPN to which the client is attempting to delegate credentials is not in its Allowed-to-delegate-to list |
| 0xE | KDC_ERR_ETYPE_NOTSUPP | KDC has no support for encryption type | In general, this error occurs when the KDC or a client receives a packet that it cannot decrypt. |
| 0xF | KDC_ERR_SUMTYPE_NOSUPP | KDC has no support for checksum type | The KDC, server, or client receives a packet for which it does not have a key of the appropriate encryption type. The result is that the computer is unable to decrypt the ticket. |
| 0x10 | KDC_ERR_PADATA_TYPE_NOSUPP | KDC has no support for PADATA type (pre-authentication data) | Smart card logon is being attempted and the proper certificate cannot be located. This can happen because the wrong certification authority (CA) is being queried or the proper CA cannot be contacted. It can also happen when a domain controller doesn’t have a certificate installed for smart cards (Domain Controller or Domain Controller Authentication templates). This error code cannot occur in event “4768. A Kerberos authentication ticket (TGT) was requested”. It occurs in “4771. Kerberos pre-authentication failed” event. |
| 0x11 | KDC_ERR_TRTYPE_NO_SUPP | KDC has no support for transited type | No information. |
| 0x12 | KDC_ERR_CLIENT_REVOKED | Client’s credentials have been revoked | This might be because of an explicit disabling or because of other restrictions in place on the account. For example: account disabled, expired, or locked out. |
| 0x13 | KDC_ERR_SERVICE_REVOKED | Credentials for server have been revoked | No information. |
| 0x14 | KDC_ERR_TGT_REVOKED | TGT has been revoked | Since the remote KDC may change its PKCROSS key while there are PKCROSS tickets still active, it SHOULD cache the old PKCROSS keys until the last issued PKCROSS ticket expires. Otherwise, the remote KDC will respond to a client with a KRB-ERROR message of type KDC_ERR_TGT_REVOKED. See RFC1510 for more details. |
| 0x15 | KDC_ERR_CLIENT_NOTYET | Client not yet valid—try again later | No information. |
| 0x16 | KDC_ERR_SERVICE_NOTYET | Server not yet valid—try again later | No information. |
| 0x17 | KDC_ERR_KEY_EXPIRED | Password has expired—change password to reset | The user’s password has expired. This error code cannot occur in event “4768. A Kerberos authentication ticket (TGT) was requested”. It occurs in “4771. Kerberos pre-authentication failed” event. |
| 0x18 | KDC_ERR_PREAUTH_FAILED | Pre-authentication information was invalid | The wrong password was provided. This error code cannot occur in event “4768. A Kerberos authentication ticket (TGT) was requested”. It occurs in “4771. Kerberos pre-authentication failed” event. |
| 0x19 | KDC_ERR_PREAUTH_REQUIRED | Additional pre-authentication required | This error often occurs in UNIX interoperability scenarios. MIT-Kerberos clients do not request pre-authentication when they send a KRB_AS_REQ message. If pre-authentication is required (the default), Windows systems will send this error. Most MIT-Kerberos clients will respond to this error by giving the pre-authentication, in which case the error can be ignored, but some clients might not respond in this way. |
| 0x1A | KDC_ERR_SERVER_NOMATCH | KDC does not know about the requested server | No information. |
| 0x1D | KDC_ERR_SVC_UNAVAILABLE | KDC is unavailable | No information. |
| 0x1F | KRB_AP_ERR_BAD_INTEGRITY | Integrity check on decrypted field failed | The authenticator was encrypted with something other than the session key. The result is that the client cannot decrypt the resulting message. The modification of the message could be the result of an attack or it could be because of network noise. |
| 0x20 | KRB_AP_ERR_TKT_EXPIRED | The ticket has expired | The smaller the value for the “Maximum lifetime for user ticket” Kerberos policy setting, the more likely it is that this error will occur. Because ticket renewal is automatic, you should not have to do anything if you get this message. |
| 0x21 | KRB_AP_ERR_TKT_NYV | The ticket is not yet valid | The ticket presented to the server is not yet valid (in relationship to the server time). The most probable cause is that the clocks on the KDC and the client are not synchronized. If cross-realm Kerberos authentication is being attempted, then you should verify time synchronization between the KDC in the target realm and the KDC in the client realm, as well. |
| 0x22 | KRB_AP_ERR_REPEAT | The request is a replay | This error indicates that a specific authenticator showed up twice — the KDC has detected that this session ticket duplicates one that it has already received. |
| 0x23 | KRB_AP_ERR_NOT_US | The ticket is not for us | The server has received a ticket that was meant for a different realm. |
| 0x24 | KRB_AP_ERR_BADMATCH | The ticket and authenticator do not match | The KRB_TGS_REQ is being sent to the wrong KDC. There is an account mismatch during protocol transition. |
| 0x25 | KRB_AP_ERR_SKEW | The clock skew is too great | This error is logged if a client computer sends a timestamp whose value differs from that of the server’s timestamp by more than the number of minutes found in the “Maximum tolerance for computer clock synchronization” setting in Kerberos policy. |
| 0x26 | KRB_AP_ERR_BADADDR | Network address in network layer header doesn't match address inside ticket | Session tickets MAY include the addresses from which they are valid. This error can occur if the address of the computer sending the ticket is different from the valid address in the ticket. A possible cause of this could be an Internet Protocol (IP) address change. Another possible cause is when a ticket is passed through a proxy server or NAT. The client is unaware of the address scheme used by the proxy server, so unless the program caused the client to request a proxy server ticket with the proxy server's source address, the ticket could be invalid. |
| 0x27 | KRB_AP_ERR_BADVERSION | Protocol version numbers don't match (PVNO) | When an application receives a KRB_SAFE message, it verifies it. If any error occurs, an error code is reported for use by the application. The message is first checked by verifying that the protocol version and type fields match the current version and KRB_SAFE, respectively. A mismatch generates a KRB_AP_ERR_BADVERSION. See RFC4120 for more details. |
| 0x28 | KRB_AP_ERR_MSG_TYPE | Message type is unsupported | This message is generated when target server finds that message format is wrong. This applies to KRB_AP_REQ, KRB_SAFE, KRB_PRIV and KRB_CRED messages. This error also generated if use of UDP protocol is being attempted with User-to-User authentication. |
| 0x29 | KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED | Message stream modified and checksum didn't match | The authentication data was encrypted with the wrong key for the intended server. The authentication data was modified in transit by a hardware or software error, or by an attacker. The client sent the authentication data to the wrong server because incorrect DNS data caused the client to send the request to the wrong server. The client sent the authentication data to the wrong server because DNS data was out-of-date on the client. |
| 0x2A | KRB_AP_ERR_BADORDER | Message out of order (possible tampering) | This event generates for KRB_SAFE and KRB_PRIV messages if an incorrect sequence number is included, or if a sequence number is expected but not present. See RFC4120 for more details. |
| 0x2C | KRB_AP_ERR_BADKEYVER | Specified version of key is not available | This error might be generated on server side during receipt of invalid KRB_AP_REQ message. If the key version indicated by the Ticket in the KRB_AP_REQ is not one the server can use (e.g., it indicates an old key, and the server no longer possesses a copy of the old key), the KRB_AP_ERR_BADKEYVER error is returned. |
| 0x2D | KRB_AP_ERR_NOKEY | Service key not available | This error might be generated on server side during receipt of invalid KRB_AP_REQ message. Because it is possible for the server to be registered in multiple realms, with different keys in each, the realm field in the unencrypted portion of the ticket in the KRB_AP_REQ is used to specify which secret key the server should use to decrypt that ticket. The KRB_AP_ERR_NOKEY error code is returned if the server doesn't have the proper key to decipher the ticket. |
| 0x2E | KRB_AP_ERR_MUT_FAIL | Mutual authentication failed | No information. |
| 0x2F | KRB_AP_ERR_BADDIRECTION | Incorrect message direction | No information. |
| 0x30 | KRB_AP_ERR_METHOD | Alternative authentication method required | According RFC4120 this error message is obsolete. |
| 0x31 | KRB_AP_ERR_BADSEQ | Incorrect sequence number in message | No information. |
| 0x32 | KRB_AP_ERR_INAPP_CKSUM | Inappropriate type of checksum in message (checksum may be unsupported) | When KDC receives KRB_TGS_REQ message it decrypts it, and after that, the user-supplied checksum in the Authenticator MUST be verified against the contents of the request. The message MUST be rejected either if the checksums do not match (with an error code of KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED) or if the checksum is not collision-proof (with an error code of KRB_AP_ERR_INAPP_CKSUM). |
| 0x33 | KRB_AP_PATH_NOT_ACCEPTED | Desired path is unreachable | No information. |
| 0x34 | KRB_ERR_RESPONSE_TOO_BIG | Too much data | The size of a ticket is too large to be transmitted reliably via UDP. In a Windows environment, this message is purely informational. A computer running a Windows operating system will automatically try TCP if UDP fails. |
| 0x3C | KRB_ERR_GENERIC | Generic error | Group membership has overloaded the PAC. Multiple recent password changes have not propagated. Crypto subsystem error caused by running out of memory. SPN too long. SPN has too many parts. |
| 0x3D | KRB_ERR_FIELD_TOOLONG | Field is too long for this implementation | Each request (KRB_KDC_REQ) and response (KRB_KDC_REP or KRB_ERROR) sent over the TCP stream is preceded by the length of the request as 4 octets in network byte order. The high bit of the length is reserved for future expansion and MUST currently be set to zero. If a KDC that does not understand how to interpret a set high bit of the length encoding receives a request with the high order bit of the length set, it MUST return a KRB-ERROR message with the error KRB_ERR_FIELD_TOOLONG and MUST close the TCP stream. |
| 0x3E | KDC_ERR_CLIENT_NOT_TRUSTED | The client trust failed or is not implemented | This typically happens when user’s smart-card certificate is revoked or the root Certification Authority that issued the smart card certificate (in a chain) is not trusted by the domain controller. |
| 0x3F | KDC_ERR_KDC_NOT_TRUSTED | The KDC server trust failed or could not be verified | The trustedCertifiers field contains a list of certification authorities trusted by the client, in the case that the client does not possess the KDC's public key certificate. If the KDC has no certificate signed by any of the trustedCertifiers, then it returns an error of type KDC_ERR_KDC_NOT_TRUSTED. See RFC1510 for more details. |
| 0x40 | KDC_ERR_INVALID_SIG | The signature is invalid | This error is related to PKINIT. If a PKI trust relationship exists, the KDC then verifies the client's signature on AuthPack (TGT request signature). If that fails, the KDC returns an error message of type KDC_ERR_INVALID_SIG. |
| 0x41 | KDC_ERR_KEY_TOO_WEAK | A higher encryption level is needed | If the clientPublicValue field is filled in, indicating that the client wishes to use Diffie-Hellman key agreement, then the KDC checks to see that the parameters satisfy its policy. If they do not (e.g., the prime size is insufficient for the expected encryption type), then the KDC sends back an error message of type KDC_ERR_KEY_TOO_WEAK. |
| 0x42 | KRB_AP_ERR_USER_TO_USER_REQUIRED | User-to-user authorization is required | In the case that the client application doesn't know that a service requires user-to-user authentication, and requests and receives a conventional KRB_AP_REP, the client will send the KRB_AP_REP request, and the server will respond with a KRB_ERROR token as described in RFC1964, with a msg-type of KRB_AP_ERR_USER_TO_USER_REQUIRED. |
| 0x43 | KRB_AP_ERR_NO_TGT | No TGT was presented or available | In user-to-user authentication if the service does not possess a ticket granting ticket, it should return the error KRB_AP_ERR_NO_TGT. |
| 0x44 | KDC_ERR_WRONG_REALM | Incorrect domain or principal | Although this error rarely occurs, it occurs when a client presents a cross-realm TGT to a realm other than the one specified in the TGT. Typically, this results from incorrectly configured DNS. |

Security Monitoring Recommendations
Splunk License Keygen Key
For 4768(S, F): A Kerberos authentication ticket (TGT) was requested.
Splunk License Keygen
| Type of monitoring required | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| High-value accounts: You might have high-value domain or local accounts for which you need to monitor each action. Examples of high-value accounts are database administrators, built-in local administrator account, domain administrators, service accounts, domain controller accounts and so on. | Monitor this event with the “User ID” that corresponds to the high-value account or accounts. |
| Anomalies or malicious actions: You might have specific requirements for detecting anomalies or monitoring potential malicious actions. For example, you might need to monitor for use of an account outside of working hours. | When you monitor for anomalies or malicious actions, use the “User ID” (with other information) to monitor how or when a particular account is being used. |
| Non-active accounts: You might have non-active, disabled, or guest accounts, or other accounts that should never be used. | Monitor this event with the “User ID” that corresponds to the accounts that should never be used. |
| Account whitelist: You might have a specific allow list of accounts that are the only ones allowed to perform actions corresponding to particular events. | If this event corresponds to a “whitelist-only” action, review the “User ID” for accounts that are outside the allow list. |
| External accounts: You might be monitoring accounts from another domain, or “external” accounts that are not allowed to perform certain actions (represented by certain specific events). | Monitor this event for the “Supplied Realm Name” corresponding to another domain or “external” location. |
| Account naming conventions: Your organization might have specific naming conventions for account names. | Monitor “User ID” for names that don’t comply with naming conventions. |
You can track all 4768 events where the Client Address is not from your internal IP range or not from private IP ranges.
If you know that Account Name should be used only from known list of IP addresses, track all Client Address values for this Account Name in 4768 events. If Client Address is not from the allow list, generate the alert.
All Client Address = ::1 means local authentication. If you know the list of accounts which should log on to the domain controllers, then you need to monitor for all possible violations, where Client Address = ::1 and Account Name is not allowed to log on to any domain controller.
All 4768 events with Client Port field value > 0 and < 1024 should be examined, because a well-known port was used for outbound connection.
Also consider monitoring the fields shown in the following table, to discover the issues listed:
| Field | Issue to discover |
|---|---|
| Certificate Issuer Name | Certification authority name is not from your PKI infrastructure. |
| Certificate Issuer Name | Certification authority name is not authorized to issue smart card authentication certificates. |
| Pre-Authentication Type | Value is 0, which means that pre-authentication was not used. All accounts should use Pre-Authentication, except accounts configured with “Do not require Kerberos preauthentication,” which is a security risk. For more information, see Table 5. Kerberos Pre-Authentication types. |
| Pre-Authentication Type | Value is not 15 when account must use a smart card for authentication. For more information, see Table 5. Kerberos Pre-Authentication types. |
| Pre-Authentication Type | Value is not 2 when only standard password authentication is in use in the organization. For more information, see Table 5. Kerberos Pre-Authentication types. |
| Pre-Authentication Type | Value is not 138 when Kerberos Armoring is enabled for all Kerberos communications in the organization. For more information, see Table 5. Kerberos Pre-Authentication types. |
| Ticket Encryption Type | Value is 0x1 or 0x3, which means the DES algorithm was used. DES should not be in use, because of low security and known vulnerabilities. It is disabled by default starting from Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. For more information, see Table 4. Kerberos encryption types. |
| Ticket Encryption Type | Starting with Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, monitor for values other than 0x11 and 0x12. These are the expected values, starting with these operating systems, and represent AES-family algorithms. For more information, see Table 4. Kerberos encryption types. |
| Result Code | 0x6 (The username doesn't exist), if you see, for example N events in last N minutes. This can be an indicator of account enumeration attack, especially for highly critical accounts. |
| Result Code | 0x7 (Server not found in Kerberos database). This error can occur if the domain controller cannot find the server's name in Active Directory. |
| Result Code | 0x8 (Multiple principal entries in KDC database). This will help you to find duplicate SPNs faster. |
| Result Code | 0x9 (The client or server has a null key (master key)). This error can help you to identify problems with Kerberos authentication faster. |
| Result Code | 0xA (Ticket (TGT) not eligible for postdating). Microsoft systems should not request postdated tickets. These events could help identify anomaly activity. |
| Result Code | 0xC (Requested start time is later than end time), if you see, for example N events in last N minutes. This can be an indicator of an account compromise attempt, especially for highly critical accounts. |
| Result Code | 0xE (KDC has no support for encryption type). In general, this error occurs when the KDC or a client receives a packet that it cannot decrypt. Monitor for these events because this should not happen in a standard Active Directory environment. |
| Result Code | 0xF (KDC has no support for checksum type). Monitor for these events because this should not happen in a standard Active Directory environment. |
| Result Code | 0x12 (Client's credentials have been revoked), if you see, for example N events in last N minutes. This can be an indicator of anomaly activity or brute-force attack, especially for highly critical accounts. |
| Result Code | 0x1F (Integrity check on decrypted field failed). The authenticator was encrypted with something other than the session key. The result is that the KDC cannot decrypt the TGT. The modification of the message could be the result of an attack or it could be because of network noise. |
| Result Code | 0x22 (The request is a replay). This error indicates that a specific authenticator showed up twice—the KDC has detected that this session ticket duplicates one that it has already received. It could be a sign of attack attempt. |
| Result Code | 0x29 (Message stream modified and checksum didn't match). The authentication data was encrypted with the wrong key for the intended server. The authentication data was modified in transit by a hardware or software error, or by an attacker. Monitor for these events because this should not happen in a standard Active Directory environment. |
| Result Code | 0x3C (Generic error). This error can help you more quickly identify problems with Kerberos authentication. |
| Result Code | 0x3E (The client trust failed or is not implemented). This error helps you identify logon attempts with revoked certificates and the situations when the root Certification Authority that issued the smart card certificate (through a chain) is not trusted by a domain controller. |
| Result Code | 0x3F, 0x40, 0x41 errors. These errors can help you more quickly identify smart-card related problems with Kerberos authentication. |
