Breakthrough meterpreter scripting
The meterpreter shell is the most desired type of access an attacker will like to have on the target.

Essentials of meterpreter scripting
As far as we have seen, we have used meterpreter in situations where we needed to perform some additional tasks on the system. However, now we will look at some of the advanced situations that may arise during a penetration test, where the scripts already present in meterpreter...
