00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:10.300
Welcome to Pluralsight and this cybersecurity tools course featuring Covenant,

00:00:10.450 --> 00:00:14.400
the open source command and control tool developed and maintained by Ryan Cobb.

00:00:14.850 --> 00:00:16.020
As a Red Team Operator,

00:00:16.079 --> 00:00:18.840
you've had a great run with tools like Meterpreter and PS

00:00:18.840 --> 00:00:21.740
Empire, but with prolific adoption of more advanced

00:00:21.750 --> 00:00:23.510
endpoint detection response tools,

00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:27.310
you have to look for new ways to maintain your foothold in compromised systems.

00:00:27.890 --> 00:00:31.420
.NET compilation on the target systems in‑memory is showing

00:00:31.420 --> 00:00:33.400
promise as a stable and stealthy technique,

00:00:33.620 --> 00:00:37.310
and Covenant is the C2 platform built to capitalize on that capability.

00:00:37.730 --> 00:00:41.140
Staying true to the lore of Halo's organized alien hierarchy, you

00:00:41.140 --> 00:00:44.070
and your team can collaborate on this weaponized platform to

00:00:44.070 --> 00:00:46.380
create implants called grunts and deploy,

00:00:46.380 --> 00:00:48.750
manage, and spread them across compromised networks,

00:00:48.900 --> 00:00:52.490
taking various blood purging actions as you see fit along the way.

00:00:52.760 --> 00:00:55.440
Whether you're ready to integrate a new command and control capability

00:00:55.440 --> 00:00:58.550
into your red team operations or just looking to test your network

00:00:58.550 --> 00:01:00.800
defenses against the latest adversarial techniques,

00:01:01.060 --> 00:01:04.349
join me to learn tips and tricks for installation and

00:01:04.349 --> 00:01:05.950
general operation of Covenant, today.
