Get SharpHound

The latest build of SharpHound will always be in the BloodHound repository here

Compile Instructions

SharpHound is written using C# 9.0 features. To easily compile this project, use Visual Studio 2019.

If you would like to compile on previous versions of Visual Studio, you can install the Microsoft.Net.Compilers nuget package.

Building the project will generate an executable as well as a PowerShell script that encapsulates the executable. All dependencies are rolled into the binary.

Requirements

SharpHound is designed targetting .Net 4.5. Sharphound must be run from the context of a domain user, either directly through a logon or through another method such as RUNAS.
