configuring-active-directory-tiered-model

configuring-active-directory-tiered-model is a skill for Claude Code from 26zl/cybersec-toolkit. It costs 46 tokens per session (535 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to separating Active Directory administration into security tiers. Active Directory is Microsoft's system for managing users, computers, and access in Windows networks; the tiers keep the most sensitive accounts and systems apart from ordinary administration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design Tier 0, Tier 1, and Tier 2 administration, set up privileged access workstations, and document the security model.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance that a stolen lower-level account can be used to reach highly privileged systems. It also addresses safer administrator workstations, authentication rules, and protection against stolen credentials.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

configuring-active-directory-tiered-model scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/agent.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Configuring Active Directory Tiered Model

Overview

Implement Microsoft's Enhanced Security Admin Environment (ESAE) tiered administration model for Active Directory. Covers Tier 0/1/2 separation, privileged access workstations (PAWs), administrative forest design, authentication policy silos, and credential theft mitigation.

When to Use

  • When deploying or configuring configuring active directory tiered model capabilities in your environment
  • When establishing security controls aligned to compliance requirements
  • When building or improving security architecture for this domain
  • When conducting security assessments that require this implementation

Prerequisites

  • Familiarity with identity access management concepts and tools
  • Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
  • Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
  • Appropriate authorization for any testing activities

Objectives

  • Implement comprehensive configuring active directory tiered model capability
  • Establish automated discovery and monitoring processes
  • Integrate with enterprise IAM and security tools
  • Generate compliance-ready documentation and reports
  • Align with NIST 800-53 access control requirements

Security Controls

Control NIST 800-53 Description
Account Management AC-2 Lifecycle management
Access Enforcement AC-3 Policy-based access control
Least Privilege AC-6 Minimum necessary permissions
Audit Logging AU-3 Authentication and access events
Identification IA-2 User and service identification

Verification

  • Implementation tested in non-production environment
  • Security policies configured and enforced
  • Audit logging enabled and forwarding to SIEM
  • Documentation and runbooks complete
  • Compliance evidence generated
Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
