1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:08,140 So now what in the previous section, you have gained access to the target systems and your new phase 2 00:00:08,500 --> 00:00:10,300 is post exploitation. 3 00:00:11,610 --> 00:00:19,410 So if the scope of the penetration test finishes here, OK, you've got something you can go in, outline 4 00:00:19,410 --> 00:00:20,700 your findings in a report. 5 00:00:21,780 --> 00:00:28,320 However, if the scope allows you to move on, then you can go way deeper and advance your techniques 6 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,190 to see a broad view of the target system. 7 00:00:32,420 --> 00:00:39,530 Post exploitation is arguably the most important way to get a clear picture of a client's security posture. 8 00:00:40,870 --> 00:00:45,670 So what the heck is post exploitation specifically? 9 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:53,540 It's indeed a phase in penetration testing that you will do the information gathering on the exploited 10 00:00:53,540 --> 00:00:58,850 systems, you can also escalate your privilege and move from system to system. 11 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:08,330 It actually starts when you get limited or sometimes full access of the target and you want to search 12 00:01:08,330 --> 00:01:15,200 for certain files or folders, dump the user credentials, capture screenshots remotely, dump out the 13 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:22,520 keystrokes from the remote system, escalate your privileges, and also try to make your access persistent. 14 00:01:23,610 --> 00:01:29,130 So then that means this section will cover the basics of post exploitation. 15 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:38,220 Now MSF helps you a lot with many of the post exploitation modules and also provides many payloads to 16 00:01:38,220 --> 00:01:39,510 enable you to perform. 17 00:01:40,410 --> 00:01:41,520 Post exploitation. 18 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:47,460 But what I'm going to do is cover my interpreter for the most part in this next section. 19 00:01:48,380 --> 00:01:54,910 My interpreter is an extension of the Métis Boyd framework that allows you to leverage Métis boy's functionality, 20 00:01:56,180 --> 00:02:03,950 it's also thought to be one of the flagship products in Métis boy, and I think that's absolutely not 21 00:02:04,490 --> 00:02:06,080 an underestimation. 22 00:02:08,860 --> 00:02:14,980 Interpretor is an advanced, multifunctional payload that can be used to leverage your capabilities 23 00:02:14,980 --> 00:02:16,600 dynamically at runtime. 24 00:02:17,350 --> 00:02:18,120 So let's move on.
