Logs collector - This module collects authentication traffic from the Active Directory environment.
It gathers the logs from the domain controllers and endpoints, focusing only on interactive Kerberos and NTLM authentications.
Analyzer module - This module inputs the logs from the collector and outputs a detailed report containing the patterns that LATMA found, how they're connected, who performed them, and when.
It also visualizes the findings in a GIF..
