4769(S, F): A Kerberos service ticket was requested.

Event 4769 illustration

Subcategory: Audit Kerberos Service Ticket Operations

Event Description:

This event generates every time Key Distribution Center gets a Kerberos Ticket Granting Service (TGS) ticket request.

This event generates only on domain controllers.

If TGS issue fails then you'll see Failure event with Failure Code field not equal to “0x0”.

You'll typically see many Failure events with Failure Code0x20”, which simply means that a TGS ticket has expired. These are informational messages and have little to no security relevance.

Note  For recommendations, see Security Monitoring Recommendations for this event.

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 user name of the account that requested the ticket in the User Principal Name (UPN) syntax. Computer account name ends with $ character in the user name part. This field typically has the following value format: user_account_name@FULL_DOMAIN_NAME.

    • User account example: dadmin@CONTOSO.LOCAL

    • Computer account example: WIN81$@CONTOSO.LOCAL

      Note Although this field is in the UPN format, this isn't the attribute value of "UserPrincipalName" of the user account. It is the "normalized" name or implicit UPN. It is built from the user SamAccountName and the Active Directory domain name.

      This parameter in this event is optional and can be empty in some cases.

  • Account Domain [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

      This parameter in this event is optional and can be empty in some cases.

  • Logon GUID [Type = GUID]: a GUID that can help you correlate this event (on a domain controller) with other events (on the target computer for which the TGS was issued) that can contain the same Logon GUID. These events are “4624: An account was successfully logged on”, “4648(S): A logon was attempted using explicit credentials” and “4964(S): Special groups have been assigned to a new logon.”

    This parameter might not be captured in the event, and in that case appears as “{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}”.

Note  GUID is an acronym for 'Globally Unique Identifier'. It is a 128-bit integer number used to identify resources, activities or instances.

Service Information:

  • Service Name [Type = UnicodeString]: the name of the account or computer for which the TGS ticket was requested.

    • This parameter in this event is optional and can be empty in some cases.
  • Service ID [Type = SID]: SID of the account or computer object for which the TGS ticket was requested. Event Viewer automatically tries to resolve SIDs and show the account name. If the SID can't be resolved, you'll see the source data in the event.

    • NULL SID – this value shows in 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 can't ever be used again to identify another user or group. For more information about SIDs, see Security identifiers.

Network Information:

  • Client Address [Type = UnicodeString]: IP address of the computer from which the TGS 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 (TGS 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.
MSB illustration

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 isn't 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 can't 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 its renew-till field hasn't 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. Shouldn't be in use, because postdated tickets aren't supported by KILE.
  • Ticket Encryption Type: [Type = HexInt32]: the cryptographic suite that was used for issued TGS.
Type Type Name Description
0x1 DES-CBC-CRC Disabled by default starting from Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
0x3 DES-CBC-MD5 Disabled by default starting from Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
0x11 AES128-CTS-HMAC-SHA1-96 Supported starting from Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista.
0x12 AES256-CTS-HMAC-SHA1-96 Supported starting from Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista.
0x17 RC4-HMAC Default suite for operating systems before Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista.
0x18 RC4-HMAC-EXP Default suite for operating systems before Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista.
0xFFFFFFFF or 0xffffffff - This type shows in Audit Failure events.
  • Failure Code [Type = HexInt32]: hexadecimal result code of TGS issue operation. Some errors are only reported when you set KdcExtraLogLevel registry key value with the following flags:
  • 0x01: Audit SPN unknown errors.
  • 0x10: Log audit events on encryption type (ETYPE) and bad options errors.

The table below 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 can't 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 can't 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's 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 isn't 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 can't decrypt.
0xF KDC_ERR_SUMTYPE_NOSUPP KDC has no support for checksum type The KDC, server, or client receives a packet for which it doesn't 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 can't be located. This can happen because the wrong certification authority (CA) is being queried or the proper CA can't 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 can't 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 can't 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 can't 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 don't 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.
0x1B KDC_ERR_MUST_USE_USER2USER Server principal valid for user2user only This error occurs because the service is missing an SPN.
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 can't 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 isn't yet valid (in relationship to the server time). The most probable cause is that the clocks on the KDC and the client aren't 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's 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 isn't 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 to 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 the user-supplied checksum in the Authenticator MUST be verified against the contents of the request, and the message MUST be rejected if the checksums don't match (with an error code of KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED) or if the checksum isn't 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 haven't 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 doesn't 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) isn't 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 doesn't 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 don't (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 doesn't 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.
  • Transited Services [Type = UnicodeString]: this field contains list of SPNs which were requested if constrained Kerberos delegation was used.

Note  Service Principal Name (SPN) is the name by which a client uniquely identifies an instance of a service. If you install multiple instances of a service on computers throughout a forest, each instance must have its own SPN. A given service instance can have multiple SPNs if there are multiple names that clients might use for authentication. For example, an SPN always includes the name of the host computer on which the service instance is running, so a service instance might register an SPN for each name or alias of its host.

Security Monitoring Recommendations

For 4769(S, F): A Kerberos service ticket was requested.

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 “Account Information\Account Name” 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 “Account Information\Account Name” (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 “Account Information\Account Name” that corresponds to the accounts that should never be used.
External accounts: You might be monitoring accounts from another domain, or “external” accounts that aren't allowed to perform certain actions (represented by certain specific events). Monitor this event for the “Account Information\Account Domain” corresponding to another domain or “external” location.
Restricted-use computers or devices: You might have certain computers, machines, or devices on which certain people (accounts) should not typically perform any actions. Monitor the target Computer: (or other target device) for actions performed by the “Account Information\Account Name” that you are concerned about.
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.
  • If you know that Account Name should never request any tickets for (that is, never get access to) a particular computer account or service account, monitor for 4769 events with the corresponding Account Name and Service ID fields.

  • You can track all 4769 events where the Client Address isn't from your internal IP range or not from private IP ranges.

  • If you know that Account Name should be able to request tickets (should be used) only from a known allow list of IP addresses, track all Client Address values for this Account Name in 4769 events. If Client Address isn't from your allow list of IP addresses, generate the alert.

  • All Client Address = ::1 means local TGS requests, which means that the Account Name logged on to a domain controller before making the TGS request. If you have an allow list of accounts allowed to log on to domain controllers, monitor events with Client Address = ::1 and any Account Name outside the allow list.

  • All 4769 events with Client Port field value > 0 and < 1024 should be examined, because a well-known port was used for outbound connection.

  • Monitor for a Ticket Encryption Type of 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.

  • Starting with Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, monitor for a Ticket Encryption Type other than 0x11 and 0x12. These are the expected values, starting with these operating systems, and represent AES-family algorithms.

  • If you have a list of important Failure Codes, monitor for these codes.
