TaskHound enhances penetration testing by automating the detection of dangerous scheduled tasks across Windows systems. It quickly identifies tasks running under administrative accounts, such as Domain Admins, facilitating the identification of potential weaknesses in systems. Integrating with BloodHound, TaskHound allows security teams to correlate scheduled tasks with attack path data, providing a clearer picture of exposure risks in their environments.
The tool offers various features, including offline analysis and flexible authentication, addressing a range of network scenarios. Its capabilities include assessing credential vulnerability, identifying old passwords, and generating detailed reports on task locations and risks. With ongoing development plans for enhanced integration and functionality, TaskHound is positioned to fill significant gaps in Windows privilege-escalation assessments. The creator emphasizes OPSEC considerations, ensuring that users can operate with minimal detection risk.
