#### Description
This analytic looks for the execution of `powershell.exe` with command-line arguments utilized to discover remote systems. The `Get-AdComputer' commandlet returns a list of all domain computers. Red Teams and adversaries alike may use this commandlet to identify remote systems for situational awareness and Active Directory Discovery.

#### Associated Analytic Story
* [Active Directory Discovery](/stories/active_directory_discovery)
#### How To Implement
To successfully implement this search you need to be ingesting information on process that include the name of the process responsible for the changes from your endpoints into the `Endpoint` datamodel in the `Processes` node.
#### Required field
* Processes.dest
* Processes.user
* Processes.parent_process_name
* Processes.parent_process
* Processes.original_file_name
* Processes.process_name
* Processes.process
* Processes.process_id
* Processes.parent_process_path
* Processes.process_path
* Processes.parent_process_id
#### Kill Chain Phase
* Reconnaissance
#### Known False Positives
Administrators or power users may use this command for troubleshooting.
#### RBA
| Risk Score | Impact | Confidence | Message |
| ----------- | ----------- |--------------|--------------|
| 15.0 | 30 | 50 | Remote system discovery enumeration on $dest$ by $user$ |
