What tools can be used to execute a DCSync attack and how do they differ?

Common tools include Mimikatz (C implementation), secretsdump.py (Python), MakeMeEnterpriseAdmin (PowerShell/C#), and modified C# versions like SharpDCSync. Mimikatz can export all or single user hashes, while secretsdump.py is a Python alternative. The C# implementations offer a .NET-based approach requiring a prior high-privilege ticket. Each tool ultimately performs the same replication request but differs in execution environment and command syntax. Refer to the main article for detailed command examples.
