Application Layer Protocol: Web Protocols
In this course, students will learn how C2 connections are established and used by attackers in a real-world demonstration to give learners a sense of how to detect malicious HTTP traffic. This is the last course in the Raspberry Robin Attack series.
Command and Scripting Interpreter: Windows Command Shell
In this course, you will learn how the native CMD scripting language for Windows can be abused to allow an attacker to execute remote commands, establish persistence and create autorun files to carry out an attack within the Raspberry Robin attack cycle.
System Binary Proxy Execution: Rundll32
In the course, you will learn how a malicious user can obfuscate some of their payload actions through downloaded DLL files using the built-in rundll32.exe. Using rundll32, an attacker can make their activity look like a normal Windows system binary process being executed under rundll32.
System Binary Proxy Execution: Msiexec
In the course, you will learn how a malicious user can obfuscate some of their payload actions through downloaded DLL files by utilizing the built in rundll32.exe. By using rundll32, an attacker can make their activity look like a normal Windows system binary process being executed under the rundll32.
Replication Through Removable Media
In this course, students will learn the basics of how an adversary can use removable media devices to not only gain access to an unauthorized host, but also enable autorun scripts to download additional infrastructure and payloads to a victim host.
Scheduled Task
Some organizations do not configure their operating systems and account management to properly protect the use of task scheduling functionality. As a result, adversaries can abuse this capability to execute malicious code on a victim’s system. Get hands-on practice detecting this technique so you can protect your organization.
User Discovery
Once on a victim's system, adversaries will perform user discovery to determine information, such as the primary user’s identity and capabilities. They may seek out users with access to remote systems so they can cast their net wider. Discover the attacker instead of the other way around with this dynamic, lab-based course!
Registry Run Keys
Many organizations do not monitor for additions to the Windows Registry that could be used to trigger autostart execution on system boot or logon. This allows adversaries to launch programs that run at higher privileges and paves the way for more damaging activity. Learn how to detect and mitigate this activity to secure your network.
