Post-Exploitation in Linux
In this chapter, we will explore the potent synergy between PowerShell and Linux in the realm of post-exploitation. In a landscape traditionally dominated by native Linux tools, PowerShell’s cross-platform adaptability emerges as a game-changer, providing security professionals with a versatile toolkit for post-exploitation maneuvers. This chapter delves into the strategic utilization of PowerShell to navigate and manipulate Linux environments post-breach.
As we embark on this journey, we’ll uncover PowerShell’s role in privilege escalation, lateral movement, and data exfiltration within Linux systems. From profiling users and manipulating file permissions to exploiting vulnerabilities, each facet of post-exploitation is dissected through detailed worked examples, demonstrating PowerShell’s effectiveness in simulating real-world threats.
