What to expect from this course.5:05

Installing python and pycharm IDE6:49
Install Python and the PyCharm IDE by downloading Python from python.org and the free PyCharm Community Edition from JetBrains, then verify the installation and create a project.
Sending command using public channel19:50
Build a river shell in Python that uses a public website, like Google Doc, as a command channel, sending and retrieving commands and results without port forwarding.
Extract useful command from the junck text11:03
Develop an extract command method that locates text using start and end indices with delimiter identifiers, extracts the command from a payload, and stores it for server execution.
Checking What type of command that we recived and Implument changing directory19:25
Learn to parse attacker commands in Python by stripping whitespace, splitting tokens, and using the os module to change directory with cd, including dot dot back navigation.
Implument uploading file on our server code7:49
Detects a download command, reads and base64-encodes the target file for sending to the attacker, and outlines an upload file workflow with a future send result method.
Implument execution command on our server code4:07
Develop a Python server command execution feature that imports a process module, uses check_output to run shell commands, captures results, and prepares to send back the results to the attacker.
Implument sending result through public channel23:32
Explore how to implement a send results feature in a reverse shell using Selenium-driven browser automation, including headless operation, interacting with Google Docs document, and encoding results for stealth.
Make the program run in a loop and implement error handling to prevent crashes11:13
Learn to run a Python program in a loop with sleep intervals and a try-except block to prevent crashes, enabling persistence and control via selenium and an imported server module.

Write the input command function6:56
Develop a Python listener class to capture user commands, format them with four percent signs and a dollar sign, and prepare sending to the server for the reverse shell.
Write senf the command function7:46
Define a send_command function using selenium to write user commands into a Google Docs file, clear self.comment, and relay results back through the server for execution on the victim's machine.
Write recieve the result function31:40
Fix some errors that happed on the recieving the result12:24
Write the code which is resposible for printing the result15:37
Reconstruct the file from the base64 code18:41

How to collect all keystrokes from a target machine7:33
Explore integrating artificial intelligence with a Python key logger to classify keystrokes and profile a victim, adopting an ethical hacking perspective from the hacker’s viewpoint.
Fix the special key and print log problem4:39
Handle character and special keys with a try/except, map space and enter to readable representations, convert keys to strings for logging, and append input into a log to prevent crashes.
Implumenting threading in to our keyloger4:11
Implement threading with a timer to batch keystroke data in a keylogger, storing presses and printing the log at set intervals via a report finalize method.
Give AI access to our Keylogger to analyze the data it collected46:21
Explore integrating AI with a keylogger to analyze keystrokes and profile targets using Python, Selenium, and AI tools like a reasoning module and Chat GPT for all.
Send the report back to us22:05
Explore sending AI-analyzed keystroke reports to Google Docs using a sendResult function, with headless Chrome workflows and data classification for keylogger-based security testing.

Code the Most advanced torjan horse24:27
Explore how to build an advanced trojan horse by embedding files inside a single executable using base64 encoding. Learn how the approach packages payloads for extraction and execution.
Package the Most Advanced Trojan horse6:03
Learn to package a Python script into a single executable and embed files to simulate a trojan for ethical hacking training, including PDF delivery and back-end server interactions.

Requirements

No programming experience required. I will teach you everything you need to know.

Description

This course is a hands-on, practical introduction to advanced malware concepts, taught strictly from an ethical hacking and defensive cybersecurity perspective. You will learn how modern threats communicate, execute commands, collect data, and package tools—so you can recognize, analyze, and defend against them in real-world environments.

Starting with environment setup, you will build multiple components using Python, progressively simulating how attackers may interact with compromised systems through public channels. Each step is explained in detail, with emphasis on secure coding practices, stability, and error handling.

You will explore how commands are received, validated, executed, and how results are returned. You will also learn how files are transferred and reconstructed using Base64 encoding, how keystroke data can be collected and analyzed, and how threading improves performance in monitoring applications.

Later sections examine how advanced threats are packaged and distributed by converting Python projects into executables, followed by a conceptual breakdown of advanced trojan architectures. These modules are designed to help you understand how such threats work internally—without promoting misuse.

The course concludes with guidance on Python fundamentals and clear direction on what skills and mindset are essential when learning ethical hacking and cybersecurity.

This course is for educational and defensive purposes only. All demonstrations are conducted in controlled environments.
