Description

This course explores advanced techniques for maintaining persistent access in Windows-based systems, a critical skill for both cybersecurity professionals and ethical hackers. As attackers often aim to establish long-term control over compromised systems, understanding Windows persistence mechanisms is essential for effective detection, defense, and incident response.


Participants will delve into various persistence techniques, including registry modifications, scheduled tasks, and leveraging Windows services to maintain undetected access. The course covers the use of malware, backdoors, and rootkits to ensure ongoing access, as well as methods to evade detection by antivirus software and security monitoring tools.


The course will also address the implications of persistence in penetration testing, where ethical hackers simulate real-world attacks to evaluate system defenses. Hands-on labs will give students the opportunity to practice setting up and detecting persistence mechanisms in a controlled environment, equipping them with the skills needed for proactive system defense and response to advanced persistent threats (APTs).


By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand various Windows persistence techniques and how attackers use them.

  • Identify common methods for establishing persistence on Windows systems.

  • Implement strategies for detecting, mitigating, and removing persistence mechanisms.

  • Apply learned techniques in ethical hacking scenarios and penetration tests.


Designed for security professionals, penetration testers, and incident responders, this course enhances your ability to protect against advanced cyber threats and improves your capability to secure Windows environments.

Who this course is for:

  • Red Teams - Level up their skills in cyber realms to maintain access to their target systems
  • Blue Teamer - Learn how threat actors work or move in the wild, so they can defend better, protect their systems and educate their fellow workers for better security
  • Any-One - Off course, anyone in the Cyber Security field who just wanna learn or know how threat actors act in the wild
