Could you build this?
Partial The UI and graph storage are buildable, but correct attack-path reasoning across AD, ADCS, and Entra ID requires specialized offensive-security expertise and careful modeling of many privilege-escalation techniques.
What it would actually take: The architecture is a collector that ingests directory and certificate-service data, a graph database that models principals, ACLs, and certificate templates, and a Rust path-finding engine with a web UI. The hard part is encoding the many AD and ADCS escalation edge cases correctly, which needs an experienced red-team or security-research background and validation against real or lab environments.
