Active Directory Domain Discovery Checklist

아티클
1/17/2024

During an AD DS migration or health checks, system engineers and auditors always need a checklist to keep up with what should be discovered. This checklist is a working checklist, one that has been created here for peer review and peer additions. This checklist should try and take into account all the high-level items one needs to look for during an AD DS discovery/audit. This checklist is not meant to be a step-by-step guide but a high-level overview to keep track of what needs to be discovered.
