Tryhackme Pentest+ Path 2026 | Active Directory Basics (Attacks and Exploits) #thm #wgu #pentest

I'm working through the Tryhackme Pentest+ path as I study for the CompTIA Pentest+ [PK0-003] certification exam in 2026. I'm going through these labs and building on my Parrot OS capabilities, so I used FreeRDP + OpenVPN to connect into the Tryhackme lab.
