AzureHound is a data collection tool designed for penetration testing and is a component of the BloodHound suite. Unfortunately, it has been misappropriated by threat actors who utilize it to enumerate Azure resources. This misuse not only aids in identifying vulnerabilities but also maps out possible pathways for attacks, thereby increasing the efficacy of their malicious operations.
Defenders need to be aware of AzureHound’s capabilities to safeguard against its illegitimate use. By understanding how threat actors exploit this tool, organizations can implement better security measures and controls to mitigate potential risks. Close monitoring of Azure environments and employing protective strategies are crucial in preventing such exploitations.
