Protected groups include privileged groups such as Domain Admins, Administrators, Enterprise Admins, and Schema Admins.  
 By default, the ACL of this group is copied inside all the "protected groups". This is done to avoid intentional or accidental changes to these critical groups. However, if an attacker modifies the ACL of the group **AdminSDHolder** for example, giving full permissions to a regular user, this user will have full permissions on all the groups inside the protected group \(in an hour\).  
 And if someone tries to delete this user from the Domain Admins \(for example\) in an hour or less, the user will be back in the group.
