Course overview

You’ve exploited a system. Now what? Six videos take you through the fundamentals of post-exploitation techniques, from malware and its uses (to be employed only when absolutely necessary) to malware analysis, rootkits, evasion techniques, covert channels and exfiltrating stored data from an exploited system. Learn about multipartite, stealth, polymorphic and encrypted malware, next-generation attacks, and how to avoid IDS (Intrusion Detection System) and IPS (Intrusion Prevention System).
