  2026-11-03 ADWS: What If We Knocked on a Different Door to Reach AD?

  ADWS (Active Directory Web Services) is the SOAP door enabled by default on every DC, which proxies to the local LDAP. This post explains the protocol, why I wrote an ADWS library in Rust, an adshell-rs shell that speaks both LDAP(S) and ADWS, and how I ported RustHound-CE's collection over ADWS without touching the parsing. There is also a Blue Team part on how to detect an AD data collector.
