Practical Hacking: Undetectable Malware

Explore the Metasploit framework for penetration testing, from information gathering and scanning to building attack trees and exploiting systems with payloads.

Learn to set up Metasploit in Kali Linux, configure the database and schema, start the MSF console, and create a simple payload for penetration testing.

Explore how exploits and payloads work together in the framework, using auxiliaries like scanners to identify services and gain access after information gathering and scanning.

Create a simple payload with msf venom, configure host and port, generate an exe, and test antivirus detection while setting up a msfconsole handler.

Test a created payload on a Windows machine to assess reverse shell feasibility, observe Windows Defender detection, and discuss future undetectable payloads.

Discover how the Veil 3.0 framework bypasses devices and defenders, creates multi-language payloads, and changes signatures to remain undetectable by antivirus software.

Demonstrate installation and setup of Veil 3.0 framework, including dependencies and troubleshooting, to prepare for creating evasion tools and payloads.

Learn how to create a simple payload with Veil, using Vision and Ordnance tools, and examine how to minimize antivirus detection via payload options and handlers.

Explore advanced payload creation with Veil, including shellcode types, encoding, and signature customization. Learn how these techniques are applied in a controlled security context to understand malware evasion.

Explore advanced payload creation with Veil Part 2, focusing on encoders and bad characters to alter payload signatures and improve stealth.

Explore installing py2exe on windows to compile payloads that aim to be undetectable by anti-virus, and begin the setup of required components to build and run a payload.

Discover how to create and compile a Windows payload with py2exe, deploy it to a Windows host, and verify a session using msf console and a handler.

Bind a payload to a jpg image using an SFX archive, customize the icon to resemble an image, and test the setup across machines.

Examine how changing file extensions can disguise a payload and test payload behavior on Windows 10, including deploying beyond a local network using public IP.

Explore port forwarding to reach a device outside your network by mapping a router port to a local IP, enabling traffic to reach the attacker machine.

Generate a payload using a public IP and port, then start a handler to establish a Windows session and move the payload to a Windows machine.

Interact with a meterpreter session to inspect a victim's Windows 10 machine, post attack, list processes and directories, view files, and capture screenshots.

Explore post-attack usage of meterpreter to upload and download files on a victim machine, and learn techniques to sustain and maintain access after a reboot.

Learn how to establish a persistence connection so the session automatically reopens after a victim machine restarts, by injecting a payload and maintaining access.

Verify reliable sources and avoid unknown sites to defend against malware attacks. Check file sizes and scan downloaded files, then verify hashes against the site-provided values.
