E2kSid

E2kSid — Windows Security Identifiers

Synopsis


Description

Every user in a Windows domain has a list of Security Identifiers, or SIDs, associated with them. This includes:

  • their own personal SID

  • the SID representing “all users in the local domain”

  • the SID representing “Default”

  • the SIDs for any Windows security groups that they are members of

The user’s personal SID is stored in the objectSid property of their Active Directory entry. Unfortunately, we have no way of retrieving the complete list of SIDs associated with a user.
