XMGoat – Mastering Azure Security Through Hands-On Attack Scenario

XM Goat is composed of XM Cyber terraform templates that help you learn about common Azure security issues.

Each template is a vulnerable environment, with some significant misconfigurations. Your job is to attack and compromise the environments.

Here’s what to do for each environment:

1. Run installation and then get started.
2. With the initial user and service principal credentials, attack the environment based on the scenario flow (for example, XMGoat/scenarios/scenario_1/scenario1_flow.png).
3. If you need help with your attack, refer to the solution (for example, XMGoat/scenarios/scenario_1/solution.md).
4. When you’re done learning the attack, clean up.
